High fantasy, low stakes – with a double-shot of coffee.
After decades of adventuring, Viv the orc barbarian is finally hanging up her sword for good. Now she sets her sights on a new dream – for she plans to open the first coffee shop in the city of Thune. Even though no one there knows what coffee actually is.
If Viv wants to put the past behind her, she can’t go it alone. And help might arrive from unexpected quarters. Yet old rivals and new stand in the way of success. And Thune’s shady underbelly could make it all too easy for Viv to take up the blade once more.
But the true reward of the uncharted path is the travellers you meet along the way. Whether bound by ancient magic, delicious pastries or a freshly brewed cup, they may become something deeper than Viv ever could have imagined.
Keep listening at the end of the audiobook for 'Pages to Fill,' a Legends & Lattes short story.

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) apologising 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 favourite drink and cosy up with this sweet, slice-of-life fantasy.
