A solid follow-up (albeit a prequel) to Legends and Lattes. Just a much fun and just as cozy as the first one.
I found this one less cozy than the first book. I think there's more explicit threat hanging over it. But still very enjoyable if bittersweet throughout. Goes well with cake.

More wholesome cosiness - 10/10. I loved being back with Viv.
A sequel every good as the first without being a repeat or derivative. A prequel that stands on its own. This was such a joy to read, and I hope there is more to come!
Sometimes you need something cozy and heartwarming where a dwarf and an orc can fall in love over pastries and 'moist' books. These books are the literary equivalent of a comfortable chair in front of a cheerful fire with a good story in your hand and a mug of coffee and some sweet treat on the table beside you while a pleasant rain tinkles to the ground outside. Cozy and warm and lovely.
Of course, now I need to immediately re-read Legends and Lattes.

Leider hat der zweite Teil bei mir nicht funktioniert und das obwohl ich sicher noch mehr auf Bücher aufspringe, als auf Kaffee. Es wollte kein Funken überspringen, so gar nicht. Die Story plätscherte, so gut es Baldree geschafft hatte, die Leidenschaft für Kaffee in Worte zu fassen, so wenig funktionierte es bei Bücher. Hinzukommt, dass die auch der einzige Unterschied zwischen den Geschichten ist. Beim ersten Teil war die Story schon dünn, aber der Zauber groß. Ohne Zauber bleibt nur die dünne Story. Schade.
