Books Like Legends & Lattes

Read more

Travis Baldree narrates his own cozy fantasy debut, and the effect is something unusually direct — you hear the author's affection for the material in the delivery, the warmth of the coffee-shop setting and the ex-barbarian premise carried without irony in his voice, across a brisk seven hours. He narrates all ten recommendations, the full list drawn from Will Wight's Cradle series, so if the appeal here is Baldree's specific voice — unhurried, good-humored, invested — the list offers ten more hours of exactly that.
