Only Two Weeks to go until New Baldree Special Editions are Released!


In two weeks, Tor Books are due to release the North American special hardcover editions of Travis Baldree‘s best-selling, widely-acclaimed LEGENDS & LATTES and its prequel, BOOKSHOPS & BONEDUST!

Both books are only going to be available in a limited print run (other editions — paperback, eBook, and author-narrated audiobooks will remain available, of course). The new hardcovers feature new chapter art, beautiful new endpapers, and special stenciled edges.

Here’s the synopsis for LEGENDS & LATTES

After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time.

The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is.

If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won’t be able to go it alone.

But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way. And whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.

And here’s the synopsis for the #1 best-selling BOOKSHOPS & BONEDUST

When an injury throws a young, battle-hungry orc off her chosen path, she may find that what we need isn’t always what we seek.

Set in the world of New York Times bestselling Legends & Lattes, Travis Baldree’s Bookshops & Bonedust takes us on a journey of high fantasy, first loves, and secondhand books.

Viv’s career with the notorious 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 beleaguered bookshop in the company of its foul-mouthed proprietor is the last thing Viv would have predicted, but it may be both exactly what she needs and the seed of changes she couldn’t possibly imagine.

Still, adventure isn’t all that far away. A suspicious traveler in gray, 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.

Both novels are published in the UK by Tor Books, and are also available in an ever-growing number of translated editions around the world. Below are the regular-edition US covers and UK covers…
