Story4.5 out of 5 stars 63
In the quaint town of Adenashire, Doli Butterbuckle, a people-pleasing sunshine dwarf, is content with her simple tea magic and circle of friends. It’s true she’s never quite lived up to family expectations, but life is just fine... until her parents arrive with an inherited dragon egg and a charming gargoyle harboring a secret strolls into her life. As Doli grapples with her newfound responsibility and discovers a long hidden side of herself, she must face an overbearing family, a sinister plot, and a mischievous dragon that refuses to stay out of trouble.

The character development in the books has been really surprising and enjoyable. I’m really looking forward to the third book! Definitely low (but interesting and fun) stakes and cozy, and makes you feel like you belong.
I also must give a big shoutout to the narrator, Vicki Jo Eva, who really makes the characters come alive. The British accent is a nice, soothing touch.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,505
Viv's career with the notorious mercenary company Rackam's Ravens isn't going as planned. Wounded during the hunt for a powerful necromancer, she's packed off against her will to recuperate in the sleepy beach town of Murk—so far from the action that she worries she'll never be able to return to it. What's a thwarted soldier of fortune to do? Spending her hours at a beleaguered bookshop in the company of its foul-mouthed proprietor is the last thing Viv would have predicted, but it may be both exactly what she needs and the seed of changes she couldn't possibly imagine.

First off, this is a prequel, not a sequel. Secondly, I LOVED IT just as much as the original book. Once I got over the confusion (and slight disappointment) that again, this was a prequel and not a sequel, I quickly grew fond of the characters and story. I grew to love the characters as much, if not more, than the original book…which is saying something because I really loved Legends and Lattes!
Give yourself some time to get into the story and I’m sure you’ll love it, too. Some really great Easter eggs and lots of new things to love.
That being said, TRAVIS, please keep expanding the Legends and Lattes universe! We need more Viv and Tandri energy in our lives.

Warm beds, quaint mysteries, and the best rosemary bread this side of Pigsend Creek. Welcome to the Weary Dragon Inn. Bev may not know who she was before she showed up in the quaint village of Pigsend five years ago, but that doesn’t bother her much. She’s made a tidy little life for herself as the proprietor of the Weary Dragon Inn, where the most notable event is when she makes her famous rosemary bread.

I love the cozy fantasy genre, and this series kept popping up in my recs. I’m glad I took a chance on it. It’s very low stakes, but includes some quaint mysteries. The characters really start to grow on you. The pacing is a little slow, but give it a shot and you’ll get more used to it, and enjoy being immersed in the world of Pig’s End.
ALSO…What a pleasant surprise that this story features not one, but TWO queer characters that are integral to the story. It’s not done in an “in your face way”, and was almost so subtle that it took me a few chapters to realize that these were two women married…to each other. It’s done in a very refreshing way. It’s not about them being gay, it’s about them being human like everyone else (what a concept!). Nobody bats an eye, and it just is.
Give this one a chance if cozy fantasy is your jam.
