I have to say that it's pretty hard to put down any of the Goblin Slayer novels once you started to read any of them, and this seventh volume was no different. The story kept on captivating your attention to keep wanting to turn the pages and read what new adventure the party got into now.
This time there's a wedding to look forward to--and elven one even! It's a quite different change of pace for once, after quite a number of goblin extermination quest. And just as one thought they wouldn't be encountering any goblins there, they ended up having done just that. As usual.
I like how the underlying plots keep on continuing, and how it turned out that all these goblin quests that the party had undertook ever since the first one with the ogre were all connected. Like at first, it seemed so disconnected (esp with how the hero's side plot were sneaked in between each main plots) yet later the more you keep getting these few pieces that came out, the more you start seeing the bigger picture.
And one of the gems that not many might notice right away was how funny the story can be. Like sure, you have all these dark scheming with the hoblin activities and the horrendous deeds those NPCs had done, yet there's also parts where you had to see Goblin Slayer being his usual awkward self as his friends tried to help him fit in and reading all about that was just so delightful!

I enjoy all the references to classic TRPG games I've played, combat scenes are well written, without overpower characters or silly resolutions. They have that sense of danger that anyone that has played a TRPG knows. The combats are deadly and well balanced. The story is good with a couple of holes that didn't quite fit like thousand year old elf who behave and are as smart as teenagers, or some dialogues that doesn't feel right and are hard to follow or understand. Also the main story has been too slow to advanced, each volume has been mainly fights against different opponents in different settings, hopefully the plot will move forward in the next volume. A good LNovel worth reading.

Goblin Slayer and his party are back, slaying goblins wherever they may be. Despite the brutal goblin slaughter, Goblin Slayer the series has turned into a slice of life series so gradually, I almost didn’t notice it. I enjoy it though - it’s a nice mix of classic RPG references, a fun serialised story, and some classic goblin slaying.
This volume was pretty fun - a trip to High Elf Archer’s home for a wedding and an attack on the elves’ village by a giant dinosaur and a goblin scheme to pollute and curse the water supply. The characters and their stories are good fun. Looking forward to seeing this adapted in the anime series.

What a book!
Continuing the adventures of Goblin Slayer and this time it's off to the elves for a wedding and of course the little monsters arrive to spoil the big day.
This story has a lot going for it from the light touches of humour to the reinforcement of the notion that all goblins must die, and painfully at that, and a sense of wonder that came across in writing.
I think that this book is a noticeable highlight within the entire series and would recommend it highly, although if like me you're seven books in already then getting this book is a no-brainer.
Enjoy.

Not my favorite of the series. I guess I was just hoping there'd be more with Cow Girl being on the cover that she'd actually have a part in the story other than just continually being relegated to being a decoration.
So High Elf Archer's sister is getting married so everyone heads off to the wedding. Next to nothing inspired me about the Elf culture in this world including our lead elf. At least the actual Goblin Slaying was interesting as usual.
Verdict: An OK entry. If you like the series it's worth reading, but wasn't my favorite.

I really appreciate how the original novels understand and respect the characters' trauma. I'm also a big fan of Priestess and her continued development alongside Goblin Slayer in this particular novel; I was a bit afraid that the inclusion of Cow Girl and Guild Girl would hold that back, but am pleased to say my fears were unwarranted.
Full review eventually appearing on ANN.

The first 2/3rds of the book are really poor, and there’re only a few details that save it from 1 star in the last 1/3rd. Reads like a side story that brings nothing new to the series.

A fun continuation!
A nice addition to the series - keeps the pace and the cast of characters are still endearing. Here’s to slaying some more goblins!

I am not a fan of backstory for ancillary characters. This book was wholly unnecessary.

More goblins slain. More overuse of the words 'strange' and 'ample'.
Still fun.

Seems the adventure was once every season 😅
Seems the next volume would be fall adventure 😆

I don't know why I keep reading these books. I want to find out the story for Goblin Slayer and yet there's so much fluffy junk and stupid in each book. Meh....Onward and upward!

Not the best or most thrilling adventure in the series, but it did allow for more character building, which I appreciated.

It's business as usual in this volume of Goblin Slayer, albeit this time this setting switches to the High Elf Archer's home town as she returns home for her sister's wedding bringing our merry band in tow as well.
Quite possibly the best volume of the series as we move away from the usual town/cave/ruin setting and explore the fantastical hometown of the High Elves, which has been hinted before. The feeling of High Fantasy oozes from this volume with the fantastic descriptions of the High Elves' nature based culture. You can really tell the author loves them!
Of course, it wouldn't be a great volume of Goblin Slayer if we didn't do any goblin slaying and this volume definitely doesn't disappoint, culminating in an epic showdown inside an ancient elven fortress.
Definitely one of my favourite volumes so far, not only we get to finally explore a new setting, the character interactions here were really great especially on how the Elves' viewpoints and culture is explained. I haven't been too endeared by the recent volumes in the GS series, but this one really lived up to my expectations!
