A sweet, fun backstory to the hit Legends and Lattes. Viv is a young orc trying to find her way as a fledgling mercenary when she gets injured and left behind in a small town by the sea. As she heals, she makes friends and becomes embroiled in a mystery adventure. Featuring baking, bookshops, found friends, and necromancy, Travis Baldree weaves in some very enjoyable nods and cameos from the first story. Satchel is the most excellent addition to the Legends and Lattes universe. When you've read it, that will make sense. 

An emotional five stars for giving all those feelings all over again. Definitely read Legends and Lattes first.
