Description

This program is read by the author.

"Read by the author, a talented and animated fantasy narrator who also voiced Legends, the book presents a colorful cast of new and familiar characters that is sure to ensorcell and delight listeners." —Booklist

When an injury throws a young, battle-hungry orc off her chosen path, she may find that what we need isn't always what we seek.

Set in the world of New York Times bestselling Legends & Lattes, Travis Baldree's Bookshops & Bonedust 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.

“Take a break from epic battles and saving the world. This 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, on Legends & Lattes

Ce que les critiques en disent

  • 2023 - Barnes and Noble Best New Books of the Year

"What I love about Travis Baldree is that set against an epic world of adventure, he writes about the small victories that make life worthwhile. Bookshops & Bonedust does this and it is glorious."—Ben Aaronovitch, bestselling author of Rivers of London

"Bookshops & Bonedust is the perfect follow up to Legends & Lattes; it's a pleasure to meet a Younger Viv and watch her grow slowly, stubbornly, into the orc we love so much. Some bittersweetness is inevitable, but Baldree reminds us that the past—even our mistakes—is the fertile soil where we plant the seeds of a beautiful future."—C.L. Clark, author of The Unbroken

“Well, damn, he’s done it again. Bookshops & Bonedust is hilarious, heartwarming, and wholesome as heck. If you loved the first you’ll almost certainly love this perfectly executed prequel even more, as the stakes are higher and the scones are hotter still!”—Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld

The laugh and tale I needed

Second book in the series, and I enjoyed every dang moment of it.
The laugh and light hearted story was exactly what I needed.
A delightful series and if you haven’t already enjoyed Legends and Lattes, go get that one too.

Travis is a wonderful writer and an excellent storyteller

Lovely prequel.

Very much enjoyed this second book. Not quite as good as the first but still a fun gentle ride…with a dash of violence and skullduggery.

No Sequel Syndrome Here

When I read Legends and Lattes a few months ago I found it to be a real breath of fresh air in the fantasy genre. A highly enjoyable departure from the high drama and high violence the genre is so known for. By the end I was excited to see that Mr. Baldree had lined up a sequel.

So, when Bookshops and Bonedust dropped I had already planned for a credit to go towards it and started reading soon after.

In B&B Travis has perfected what he laid down in L&L. The humour is funnier, the heartfelt moments more moving, and the action more exciting. Everything comes together in a concoction that has me hungering, not hoping for the day that he (fingers crossed) returns to Viv, or at least the world’s had forged with these tales.

a great read

Not what I expected for a sequel, but loved the story just the same. Some parts were a bit confusing from an audio point compared to reading the physical book, but not enough to take away from the story.
highly suggest giving it a read, especially if you enjoyed legends and lattes

The cosiest prequel

I read some lacklustre reviews of Bookshops and Bonedust, and I simply couldn’t disagree more with them. The thing I love about Viv’s world, and her story, is that cynicism need not apply; these books are perfect for readers, like me, who cut their teeth on high fantasy, and still have a soft spot for it in their hearts and libraries.

The new characters we find in Fern, Satchel and Melee are wonderful additions to Viv’s backstory, as is the origin of her friendship with Galina. The story remains low stakes, but it’s so much fun to see Viv in action, vs retired adventurer Viv.

And for me, the real charm of this world, comes in the form of found family and community, and queer character who experience queer love without queer trauma.

Finally, I really enjoyed Baldree’s narration in Legends and Lattes, and I think he really delivers again in Bookshops and Bonedust.
