Publisher Description

An instant New York Times, USA Today, and Indie bestseller!

Return to the fantasy world of the #1 New York Times bestselling Legends & Lattes series with a new adventure featuring fan-favorite, foul-mouthed bookseller Fern

Fern has weathered the stillness and storms of a bookseller’s life for decades, but now, in the face of crippling ennui, transplants herself to the city of Thune to hang out her shingle beside a long-absent friend’s coffee shop. What could be a better pairing? Surely a charming renovation montage will cure what ails her!

If only things were so simple…

It turns out that fixing your life isn’t a one-time prospect, nor as easy as a change of scenery and a lick of paint.

A drunken and desperate night sees the rattkin waking far from home in the company of a legendary warrior, an imprisoned chaos-goblin with a fondness for silverware, and an absolutely thumping hangover.

As together they fend off a rogue’s gallery of ne’er-do-wells trying to claim the bounty the goblin represents, Fern might find the courage to step off the beaten path in order to find her true self.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Brigands & Breadknives Reviews

4.0
“I struggled to get into the book because it's so different from the last books, but it did well in what it wanted to do. And it was the lesson I needed in a book right now in my life. I hesitate to say I loved it because at one point I nearly dnfed it, but once I accepted the book as it was it was a delight. Don't expect much Viv though as a heads up!”

Loudly Crying Face“Before I give my opinions on this specific book, I have to say this series has a really special place in my heart and I’ve rated both past books 5 stars. That being said, I didn’t find what I was looking for in this specific book. I wanted the beautiful atmospheric cozy vibes but I didn’t find it. I didn’t dislike it but it wasn’t grappling me or making me want to pick the book up at all. I did like the message behind it and the nuances of it. I do think this is just a personal preference situation though, I think alot of people might enjoy this read.”
