If you liked legends and lattes, check out the Cradle series by will wight. Travis Baldtree narrates the audiobooks!

Love this book. It's not set in any of the D&D universes as far as I'm aware, though it is very clearly influenced by the fantasy trappings of D&D

Loved it as well. Big fan of coffee from the gnomes!
Set in the DnD universe a adventure retires and sets up a coffee shop in a large city. Except no one knows what coffee is, and her past follows her there.
This is a quick read at around 200 pages, so if you read massive fantasy tomes like I do you'll knock this one out really quickly. Where it shines though is its world building and the sense of community you get from the characters as you make your way through the story. I've been recommending it to my friends and they have all loved it just as much as I did.
