I really well enjoyed the accompanying book Legends and Lattes which was published first. I of course needed to pick up its prequel. I found I enjoyed this book even more than the first. A little more action than the previous book but I would still solidly place this book in the cozy fantasy genre. I found myself breezing through the pages and reading during breaks at work just to finish. I again would recommend this for a relaxing read.

I didn't like this as much as the og Legends and Lattes. It was still good. But it felt like too much being crammed in with too many details.

I do ever so much want a book that follows Satchel around, though. He was the highlight of this book for me.

I love this series so much. Everything about this book was wonderful. These are the books I look forward to the most because of how cozy they are. I just can't get enough of Viv and how she chooses to live her life, it's wonderful. The epilogue was the icing on the cake. I hope there is at least one more book.

This prequel to Legends & Lattes doesn't have quite the same charm as that novel, but it's still a fun, low-stakes fantasy. The characters in this one were the highlight, with the ratfolk and bone homunculus being delights.
