Travis Baldree Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

Return to the cosy fantasy world of the No. 1 New York Times bestselling Legends & Lattes series with Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree, a freshly baked adventure featuring fan-favorite, foul-mouthed bookseller Fern. Fern has weathered the stillness and storms of a bookseller's life for decades, but now, in the face of crippling ennui, transplants herself to the city of Thune to hang out her shingle beside a long-absent friend's coffee shop. What could be a better pairing? Surely a charming renovation montage will cure what ails her! If only things were so simple . . . It turns out that fixing your life isn't a one-time prospect, nor as easy as a change of scenery and a lick of paint. A drunken and desperate night sees the rattkin waking far from home in the company of a legendary warrior surviving on inertia, an imprisoned chaos-goblin with a fondness for silverware, and an absolutely thumping hangover. As together they fend off a rogue's gallery of ne'er-do-wells trying to claim the bounty the goblin represents, Fern may finally reconnect with the person she actually is when anything is possible . . .

'Glorious' - Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series Set in the world of BookTok sensation Legends & Lattes, Travis Baldree's Bookshops & Bonedust is a cosy fantasy about the power of good bookshops, great friends and the unexpected choices along the way. First loves. Second-hand books. Epic adventures. Viv's career with the renowned 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 struggling bookshop in the company of its foul-mouthed proprietor is the last thing Viv would have predicted. Even though it may be exactly what she needs. Still, adventure isn't far away. A suspicious traveller in grey, 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. Sometimes, right things happen at the wrong time. Sometimes, what we need isn't what we seek. And sometimes, we find ourselves in the stories we experience together . . . Readers love Bookshops & Bonedust! 'Reading this book feels like being wrapped up in a soft blanket' 'I think I actually might love this more than Legends & Lattes' 'This was all I had hoped for, and more'

Fantasy ľahučké ako mliečna pena s dvojitým espressom sebaspoznávania Viv sa po rokoch rozhodla opustiť život plný násilia a krviprelievania a raz a navždy zavesiť svoj meč na klinec. Unavená z nekonečných bojov si zaumienila, že obráti list a otvorí prvú kaviareň v meste Thune. V ceste jej však stoja mnohé prekážky vrátane skutočnosti, že obyvatelia mesta nemajú potuchy, čo vlastne káva je. Orkyňa túži zanechať staré chodníčky a pohnúť sa ďalej, no bez pomoci to určite nezvládne. Skutočné bohatstvo jej novej neprebádanej cesty však spočíva v pútnikoch, ktorých na nej stretá. A či už ich zviedla dokopy prastará mágia, lahodné koláče alebo šálka čerstvo uvarenej kávy, časom sa z nich azda vykľujú partneri, rodina, ba možno aj čosi viac, čo by si Viv nedokázala predstaviť ani vo sne.
