The much-beloved BookTok sensation, Travis Baldree's novel of high fantasy and low stakes.
*This new edition includes a very special, never-before-seen bonus story, 'Pages to Fill.'*
After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time.
The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is.
If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won't be able to go it alone.
But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way. And whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.
“Take a break from epic battles and saving the world. Legends & Lattes is a low-stakes fantasy that delivers exactly what's advertised: a wholesome, cozy novel that feels like a warm hug. This is my new comfort read.”—Genevieve Gornichec, author of The Witch's Heart

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Get ready for a fantasy novel that lets you chill, without an epic adventure getting in the way. As an orc barbarian, Viv is no stranger to warrior life—and she’s done with it. All she wants is to hang up her sword and open something called…a café. Of course, nobody in the town of Thune has even heard of coffee, so she’ll need help, but that’s what makes Legends and Lattes so delightful. This is a book about characters working together, caring about each other, and even (gasp) apologizing when they hurt each other’s feelings. We fell in love with Thimble the ratkin, Tandri the succubus, and Cal the hob, who become Viv’s surrogate family and partners in her heartfelt quest. Pour yourself your favorite drink and cozy up with this sweet, slice-of-life fantasy.
Customer Reviews
Great read!
I really enjoyed the book, it gave very cozy vibes. The only issue I had was there is little to no world building. Besides that it makes me want to know more about the world.
Fun and enjoyable read
This is a fun book that is easy to read. The characters are likeable and relatable. It has a happy ending and lots of potential for sequels and prequels and other such off- shoots. There is even a short prequel story at the end of the book!
