Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree
2023’s Bookshops & Bonedust, by Travis Baldree, is not a sequel to last year’s Legends & Lattes, but a prequel, introducing us to a much younger version of the orc mercenary Viv.

They promise to pick her up on their return home, but Viv chafes at the thought of them fighting without her.
