Ambientada no universo do best-seller Cafés e Lendas, a prequel Livros e Ossos é uma jornada de alta fantasia, primeiros amores e muitos livros antigos Viv é uma jovem orc que tem sede de batalhas e de vitória, mas sua carreira com os notórios Corvos de Rackam, um bando de mercenários velhos de guerra, vai de mal a pior. Depois de ser ferida durante uma caçada a uma poderosa necromante, Viv é enviada contra sua vontade para Murk, uma cidadezinha litorânea, para se recuperar. Para sua tristeza, o máximo de aventura que ela deve conseguir por ali é observar as ondas quebrando na costa. Esquecida pelos companheiros de guerra, Viv se distrai passando os dias na livraria Thistleburr, e se surpreende com o fato de que os livros (e a dona mal-humorada do lugar) sejam tão divertidos. Mas essa pode ser justamente a mudança de que precisa para enfim dar um novo rumo à sua vida. Só que as façanhas que Viv tanto deseja talvez não estejam tão distantes... Em meio a viajantes misteriosos, gnomos ranzinzas, crushes de verão e um número preocupante de esqueletos à solta, a orc vai descobrir que há muito mais na tranquila Murk do que ela poderia supor. Emocionante e com um toque de humor, Livros & Ossos reflete sobre a importância da vida em comunidade e a busca por um propósito em meio às peripécias do destino. Situado no mesmo universo de Cafés & Lendas, o livro narra as aventuras da jovem orc antes de ela decidir aposentar sua espada e abrir a própria cafeteria.

Nadat huurlinge Viv gewond raakt, wordt ze naar het slaperige badplaatsje Murk gestuurd om te herstellen. Ze brengt daar heel wat uren door in de plaatselijke boekhandel met de grofgebekte Fern. Maar het avontuur is nooit ver weg. Een verdachte reiziger in grijs, een gnoom met attitude, een zomerliefde en talloze skeletten zorgen ervoor dat Murk niet zo''n saai badplaatsje is als het op eerste gezicht lijkt. ''Boekwinkels & botbreuken'' is een heerlijke cozy fantasy van Travis Baldree, perfect voor de fans van TJ Klune en feelgood- en fantasylezers.

De avontuurlijke ork Viv is toe aan iets nieuws. Na een leven als huurling vol gevechten en bloedvergieten, besluit ze haar zwaard in te ruilen voor een koffiebar in een klein dorpje. Maar dat is een flinke uitdaging... Rivalen proberen haar plannen te dwarsbomen en dan is er ook nog het kleine detail dat niemand in het dorp ooit van koffie heeft gehoord. Gelukkig staat Viv er niet alleen voor. Met nieuwe vrienden, vertrouwen en geluk lijkt haar niets meer in de weg te staan. Of is ze zelf haar grootste vijand? ''Legendes & lattes'' van Travis Baldree is een heerlijk avontuurlijk cozy fantasyboek, voor zowel de fantasy- als de feelgoodlezers!

Uma fantasia aconchegante sobre uma antiga guerreira que decide começar uma nova vida e... abrir um café. Exausta de passar décadas em batalhas sangrentas, Viv, um ogre, decide que está na altura de mudar de vida. Por isso, crava a sua espada no crânio do inimigo e parte em direção a um novo destino que lhe traga alegria. Uma lenda esquecida, um artefacto mítico e uma dose de esperança levam-na às ruas de Thune, onde pretende abrir o primeiro café da cidade, e servir uma bebida que nenhum dos cidadãos alguma vez provou. Porém, os seus sonhos de uma nova vida são muito incertos, sobretudo quando se tem um passado complicado e velhos inimigos dispostos a interferir no seu futuro. Para construir algo que resista ao tempo, Viv terá de se rodear de um grupo maravilhoso de criaturas que não só a ajudarão a cuidar do seu estabelecimento, como também lhe ensinarão muito sobre amizade e como resolver problemas sem ser com a espada. Viv vai descobrir que as criaturas que encontra na sua jornada - unidas por doces deliciosos ou uma bebida quente - podem tornar-se a sua verdadeira família. E talvez uma delas até conquiste o seu coração. Esta história é uma chávena quente de fantasia com uma pitada de romance.

Fenômeno do TikTok, uma alta fantasia de baixíssimo perigo em que uma orc decide mudar de vida e encontra pelo caminho uma verdadeira família e um novo amor Viv empunha sua poderosa espada pela última vez. A história de uma orc deveria se resumir a força e violência, mas ela está farta de travar batalhas e colecionar problemas. Por isso, decide colocar um ponto-final em suas aventuras sanguinárias e recomeçar a vida. Levando uma pedra que carrega uma lenda esquecida, a orc decide ir para Thune, uma cidade que reúne criaturas de várias espécies e onde talvez exista uma misteriosa energia mágica. Lá, Viv decide abrir um estabelecimento nunca antes visto: uma cafeteria. Mas começar um negócio é difícil — especialmente quando ninguém tem ideia do que é café. E, para piorar, há inimigos do complicado passado da orc que querem atrapalhar seus planos. Em meio ao aroma de café e às novas amizades — Cal, um hob de poucas palavras, Tico, um adorável ratoide padeiro, e Tandri, uma súcubo que mexe com seus sentimentos —, Viv finalmente sente que encontrou seu lugar. Mas ela vai precisar de ajuda para trilhar esse novo caminho... Cativante e bem-humorado, Cafés & Lendas é uma leitura aconchegante que narra a importância das pequenas coisas da vida e mostra a magia dos momentos decisivos. Viv vai descobrir que as criaturas que encontra em sua jornada — sejam unidas por uma lenda antiga, doces deliciosos ou uma bebida quente — podem se tornar sua verdadeira família. E, quem sabe, uma delas até conquiste seu coração.

Za jakiś czas otworzy kawiarnię z pyszną latte… Dziś jeszcze walczy z potworami. *** Kariera Viv w drużynie Kruków, sławnych najemników, zostaje nagle przerwana. Podczas polowania na potężną nekromantkę orczyca odnosi rany i wbrew swojej woli trafia na rekonwalescencję do spokojnego nadmorskiego miasteczka Murk. Niewiele się tam dzieje, no i wszystko wskazuje na to, że zbyt prędko nie będzie mogła wrócić na pola bitew. Co za pech dla wojowniczki Przyjaźń z właścicielką podupadającej księgarni – szczurołaczką o niewyparzonym języku – to ostatnie, czego Viv mogłaby się spodziewać. Ale to nie wszystko! Okaże się, że Murk zapewni jej znacznie więcej wrażeń, niż początkowo zakładała… Bywa, że właściwe rzeczy zdarzają się w niewłaściwym czasie. Bywa, że poszukujemy zupełnie nie tego, czego nam potrzeba. Bywa też, że odnajdujemy się w historiach, które przeżywamy wspólnie z drugą osobą. *** Akcja „Księgarń i kościopyłu” rozgrywa się dwadzieścia lat przed tym, o czym czytaliśmy w „Legendach i Latte”. To kolejna, niezależna, nastrojowa fantasy Travisa Baldree, który tym razem opowiada, jak potężną moc mają dobra księgarnia, oddani przyjaciele i nieoczekiwane wybory, których dokonujemy na ścieżce naszego życia.

Tiktokowy fenomen i bestseller wykraczający poza ramy gatunku! Wysoka fantasy, niskie stawki. Z podwójną porcją kawy! Znużona dziesięcioleciami walk, krwawymi wyprawami i nieustannymi awanturami orczyca Viv uznaje, że nadeszła pora zawiesić miecz na kołku. Chce zrealizować swoje marzenie – zamierza otworzyć pierwszą kawiarnię w mieście Thune. Mimo że nikt tam nie ma bladego pojęcia, czym jest kawa… Jednak na tym zupełnie nowym, nieznanym szlaku nawet najdzielniejsza z wojowniczek nie poradzi sobie sama. Na drodze do sukcesu Viv stają jej rywale – dawni i nowi. Mroczne podziemie Thune może sprawić, że orczycy łatwo będzie znów chwycić za miecz, a przecież obiecała sobie, że więcej tego nie zrobi. Dlatego właśnie, jak mawia stare porzekadło, przed wyruszeniem w drogę należy zebrać drużynę. A jej członkowie mogą nadejść z najmniej oczekiwanych kierunków. Nieważne, czy ściągnie ich pradawna magia, smakowite słodkości czy też świeżo zaparzona kawa – staną się dla Viv bardziej nieodzowni, niż sobie wyobrażała. Bo prawdziwą nagrodą w wędrówce są ci, których spotykamy po drodze. „Legendy i Latte” Travisa Baldree to ciepła, napawająca optymizmem, życiowa fantasy o nowych początkach i o rodzinie, którą wybieramy sobie sami.

To podnosząca na duchu opowieść o tym, jak praca, intencje i kawa potrafią wspólnie zmienić świat na lepsze. Zaspokaja mój głód szczęśliwych zakończeń. – Genevieve Cogman „Legendy i Latte” to definicja ciepłej fantasy poprawiającej nastrój… Prześliczna. – Olivia Atwater Ta książka jest jak ciepły uścisk, miejsce, by na chwilę wycofać się ze świata, napić kawy i powrócić trochę lepszą… – T. Kingfisher
