Narrado por: Deborah Balm

Warm beds, quaint mysteries, and the best rosemary bread this side of Pigsend Creek. Welcome to the Weary Dragon Inn. Bev may not know who she was before she showed up in the quaint village of Pigsend five years ago, but that doesn’t bother her much. She’s made a tidy little life for herself as the proprietor of the Weary Dragon Inn, where the most notable event is when she makes her famous rosemary bread.

But when earthquakes and sinkholes start appearing all over town, including near Bev’s front door, she’s got to put on her sleuthing hat to figure out what—or who—might be causing them before the entire town disappears.

cozy fantasy mysteries

This is a wonderful series with charming and inclusive characters. I had so much fun discovering the mysterious happenings in the village of Pigs End with the caring, clever inn keeper Bev while learning more about her forgotten past! I immediately got the next three books in the series I'm so excited to in this world!

Great cozy fantasy with some pleasant surprises and representation

I love the cozy fantasy genre, and this series kept popping up in my recs. I’m glad I took a chance on it. It’s very low stakes, but includes some quaint mysteries. The characters really start to grow on you. The pacing is a little slow, but give it a shot and you’ll get more used to it, and enjoy being immersed in the world of Pig’s End.

ALSO…What a pleasant surprise that this story features not one, but TWO queer characters that are integral to the story. It’s not done in an “in your face way”, and was almost so subtle that it took me a few chapters to realize that these were two women married…to each other. It’s done in a very refreshing way. It’s not about them being gay, it’s about them being human like everyone else (what a concept!). Nobody bats an eye, and it just is.

Give this one a chance if cozy fantasy is your jam.

Fun and cute little story

Enjoyed these three books. My only frustration was the unrealistic expectations others placed on the MC, punishing her when she didn’t do what they wanted. She’s a very forgiving person.

Comfort and entertainment

Beautiful written and well read. Low stakes but keeps you committed until the end. The world created is comforting and a little magical. Can’t wait for more!

Story flowing despite not being action-packed

I enjoyed the small town, quirky characters, and stories. The mysteries were fun! Will continue.

Lots of surprises

Just when you think you have it figured out, it turns out to be something else! Definitely keeps you on your toes in trying to figure out who the culprit is. Then there’s the ever slow going discovery of Bev’s past. Just glimpses but enough to know it was something major.

3 great cozy stories.

A fantastic listen, narrator did a great job. The stories have me wanting more, the characters are all unique and fun to get to know throughout the stories.

Not very exciting

Reading like a cross between a fairytale and a cozy this set of books failed to capture and hold my interest. Not much happens so I am going to abandon it halfway through the second novel.

Slow and boring

I couldn’t even listen through the first book because the story build up was so painfully slow. The narrator is ok but at times sounds like she’s reading a mother goose tale to a child.
