Sadly I haven't read it either, wait until Ella come here and fill you with details. I suggest watching the anime version, all the stories in vol.1 have been animated. I can't check for the faithfulness of the anime adaptation of vol.1, but from what I heard it's quite faithful, with some slight changes.

And why is that? Could you be more specific? Have you watched the anime or not? If you haven't then why not watch it? If you have then what still left you unsatisfied?

It's not like that..... It's like, if I watched an anime, I have to read the manga or LN version of it or else I won't be satisfied.

So you mean you want to enjoy the original medium in full glory after watching the anime right :D

Way too bad English-speaking people can only make do with summaries of Kino volume 1 on the Internet. :(

If you want to obtain the first volume of Kino no Tabi, it's still available on amazon or another online shop, but the price is very high (23 € for the cheapest one :cry:, on alibris.com). But if you wait the price will drop. For exemple, I have obtain mine at 4 euros (amazon), transportation's fees include, it was a discard of the Brighton library. :lol:
So if you don't want to have just a summary of the first volume, you know what to do :twisted: .
