In Legends and Lattes there is true friendship, perseverance, hard work and a little bit of romance. No villain that tries to take over the world. In Legends and Lattes there is no world threatening event that can only be stopped by the chosen one whose coming was foretold by a prophecy centuries ago. This was a bit of a double edged sword for me as I had a constant craving for latte and cinnamon roll every time I set down to read the book. Travis's descriptions are so expressive that I not only saw everything like a movie but could almost smell the lightly charamelized and nutty scent of the brewing coffee or the sweet, intoxicating aroma of the cinnamon rolls. The length of the chapters combined with the flawlessness of the writing makes this an easy and enjoyable read. There was never a boring moment and every chapter mattered. I particularly liked the pacing of this book. The relationship between them feels natural, their inner struggles, relatable. The book was a refreshing break from my usual, darker reads and I loved every moment of it! The characters are well thought out who feel real, despite the fact that they are non-human. This is a sweet story about an orc barbarian who wanted to find out where does the other road lead. Legends and Lattes is a book that delivers exactly what it promises: high fantasy and low stakes.
