This is another case of me loving a book so much I can’t write a coherent review. It’s just so good, okay? So… safe and wholesome and lovely. When I was getting towards the end I actually stopped reading for about a week because I just did not want it to end.

I could read about this town and these characters forever. And while I know there is a prequel out—and I plan on reading it, don’t you worry—I also long for more stories set in Thune. Each focusing on a different character’s low-stakes happenings and incidents with cameos and support from other characters we know and love. This is what I crave. And I just know that Durias, that mysterious chess-playing gnome, has a [spoiler] story just waiting to be told. He needs to cameo in every book until we can start piecing his tale together.
