Legende & Latte

Viv, an orc tired of fighting for rewards, wants a change. She puts aside her sword to open Thune’s first café. But the town’s people have never heard of coffee. Rivals from her past and new foes threaten her plans. To build a new life, she must accept help.

Travis Baldree’s high fantasy novel centres on small, daily concerns. It suits readers who prefer friendship to world-saving quests, including teen readers and D&D fans. Ancient magic, pastries and coffee bring people into Viv’s life. Those bonds may grow into a chosen family, or something deeper. The story explores fresh starts and the ties that make them possible.
