Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree
Thank you to Netgalley and Pan Macmillan for the ARC of Bookshops & Bonedust for an honest review.
This is the prequel to Legend & Lattes and follows a younger Viv currently a mercenary with Rackham's Ravens. However things aren't going quite to plan when she is injured in battle and has to rest up to the sleepy beach town of Murk to recover.
With so much time now on her hands Viv finds herself spending time at the local bookshop with its foul mouthed owner.
However adventure isn't far away for Viv when a suspicious traveler in a gray cloak appears. Juggling that a summer fling, a gnome insistent on getting Vivs help to join Rackham's Ravens and a vast number of skeletons, things aren't quite as quiet as they seem.
This book was just as cosy as the first with a tad more action involved.
I felt this story was abit more fleshed out than Legends & Lattes and we got an insight into Viv' s backstory and her time as a mercenary but with the perfect addition of a cosy bookshop.
Travis Baldree has a way with writing a great dynamic between his characters and the world building is also really well done. You could feel like you were there inside the bookshop laughing and joking and helping tidy up.
This book was very enjoyable with good twists and it gave me that perfect cosy evening read after work.
If you enjoyed Legends & Lattes you are going to love this prequel.
