OBSESSED
I loved this book and the first one Legends and lattes, I honestly can’t say which one I liked better. They were fun, exciting yet cozy and warm. A very kind sort of high fantasy story. Easy read, yet captivating. I am not a dungeons and dragons player, so I had to look up some of the terminology, but I still couldn’t put the books down. I’m desperately hoping for another tale by this author.

Terrific books!
I read both this book and Legends & Lattes: A Novel of High Fantasy and Low Stakes (mentioned by Bridgerton actress, Claudia Jessie as her current read). These are beautifully written and edited books (NO TYPOS!). The characters are engaging and touching, there’s a great mix of action, comedy and romance. True page turners – I recommend them highly.

Great book for cozy readers
Audiobook ARC provided by NetGalley. Thank you NetGalley and Tor Books!Travis Baldree’s writing and his voice feel like wrapping up in a cozy blanket with a cup of tea. His books are feel good fun reads and I am so grateful that I was able to get a copy of this ARC.Since this was an audiobook ARC I’d like to start off with my audiobook specific feelings. Travis is a talented narrator, especially since he is also the author he does perfect justice to the story. His voices for characters are distinct enough to tell the difference between everyone without being too over the top or goofy. It’s an enjoyable and immersive listen, very fitting for this book.If you enjoyed the pace of Legends and Lattes then this one will likely also be for you. This book follows a young Viv having a somewhat quiet summer in a sleepy little town. Lots of sweet little moments between characters and slice of life scenes. I enjoyed watching the bookshop change and the characters change as well. I also laughed out loud at some of Fern’s cursing.I wasn’t expecting to feel *too* many feelings about this book but the epilogue genuinely made me emotional, enough so that I need to go back and give legends and lattes a re-read. I hope Travis continues this series, I will keep reading them as long as he keeps writing them.I don’t give a lot of books 5 stars but this one earned it from me.

I really liked this.
Viv, the main character, is a very young orc in a mercenary army. This is the story from her first campaign. She gets seriously hurt and has to stay in the seaside town of Murk. She, as many other young adults her age, thought she was invincible. She came up short. While recuperating in Murk, she makes friends with an interesting bunch of people.I bought Legends and Lattes. Got this because I enjoyed it. Both books are a light, fun, cozy mystery. However, if you are a homophobe, do not read this book or L&L. You don’t deserve the fun reads.All I can say is buy this. Loved seeing Viv as a bright eyed, bushy tailed kid just starting out. Definitely want more in this series!

Cute, cozy, quick read.
A good prequel to the story of Legends and Lattes. It’s both a very different and also same Viv. Fern is a perfect little character, Maylee is wonderful, Satchel is great. The story felt a little meandering until the very end where it wrapped up pretty quick, but the epilogue made it worth it. I’ll admit, not as good as the first book, but a worthwhile second.

Simply Brilliant!
I love the world that Travis introduces us to and I’m glad to walk around in it again. I didn’t expect a prequel, but I was not disappointed. The characters are amazing, the writing is superb, and the plot… is not what you’re expecting. It is simply brilliant and I would recommend it to anyone!

Li este livro e depois li o Café e Lendas. Adorei ambos, com uma vela aromatizada fornecem um ótimo ambiente aconchegante. Gostei mais deste porém, acho que o autor foi capaz de nos guiar de forma mais fluÃda pela história.

I always said I’d never read a prequel, but this author has got me into the character. Now I’ll read more from him. Doesn’t matter that it is an LGBT hero and story. It’s great theme and characterization. Top quality

I love the world created in this and the previous book. Characters so rich, full and vibrant. I hated reading the end, only because it meant my time in the story was over. I hope maybe in time a new story will entice me back to Viv and her adventures.
