Sven and Jacob take a trip to a neighboring town to sell bread as part of a new sales strategy for Tockerbrot Bakery. While there, Jacob has a surprising run-in, and soon major changes rock Tockerbrot. A rival bakery opens right next door, while the Schutzstaffel in Wiltia hatches a furtive plan... Get ready, Volume Three is bursting with excitement!
The volume focussed less on our main characters, and more on setting up future plot points and through it a bit world building. The plot of the book is somewhat predictable, and there are still a few too many extreme characters for the rather grim setting that the series is set in, but that was not unexpected based on earlier volumes. Also not entirely sure on the odd mix of RomCom, SF, and 1920s tropes/setting. Still, I enjoyed the read well enough and it fit my expectations.
The plot is predictable but still interesting. Secrets after secrets revealed. No character here would be an ordinary person, and who is the future king... we already know... 🤣
