The precursor to Legends and Lattes, and there’s plenty to keep your interest.
Our main focus is Viv, the orc, who’s injured during battle. She is left in the small town of Murk, where little happens, to heal. Viv is desperate to leave and get back to her hunt for the lady necromancer they were pursuing. Unfortunately, her leg wound means she stands little chance of leaving any time soon.
We follow Viv as she settles into Murk and finds herself befriending some of the locals. Along the way she finds a love interest and a new hobby…reading. She also becomes embroiled with a mysterious gray visitor who knows more about her than she’s prepared for.
It was nice to see Viv developing her love of reading. This is not the kind of book I’d rave about or even particularly recommend, but it was entertaining.
