Description
In Bookshops & Bonedust, a prequel to Legends & Lattes, New York Times bestselling author Travis Baldree takes us on a journey of high fantasy, first loves, and second-hand books.
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.
Still, adventure isn't all that far away. A suspicious traveler in gray, a gnome with a chip on her shoulder, a summer fling, and an improbable number of skeletons prove Murk to be more eventful than Viv could have ever expected.

I will read any Cozy fantasy this man writes, I love these books so much!
3 stars; It wasn't bad and I liked it. I thoroughly enjoyed Legends & Lattes so reading this was a no-brainer. Halfway through, I lost interest in continuing. It might've been a mix of real life stuff and the fact the cozy fantasy was feeling too slow for me that had me working on this book for the past 6 months, but by God, she's finished!I will say, one thing I dislike heavily in prequels is the amount of connections the author has to tie-in to the main book to make it a prequel. In Bookshops & Bonedust, I didn't get too much of that and I appreciate that so much.Uncertain if I will ever get to book 2? book 3? whatever Brigands & Breadknives is numbered, but I hope it's a better reading experience than I had here.
