Party of Fools is a food-infused fantasy novella with a lot to love – there is some solid world-building for such a short book, fun characters, a well-paced plot, and so many snacks. I wouldn’t say it quite landed for me as comedic, though it had its moments and there are some fantastic food-pun names. 

Recommend for those interested in a low stakes cozy adventure novella with well-executed diverse representation. I feel like this would appeal to fans of Travis Baldree; it reads a bit like a really fun D&D session where things go a bit sideways from the DM’s plan but where everyone has a great time.
