Goodreads
A Little Warped is the first and only short story in The Guild Codex: Warped.
**Note: Available at the end of The Alchemist and an Amaretto (paperback/kindle) and Hellbound Guilds & Other Misdirections (paperback/kindle/audio).
I’m thrilled to be participating in the 2026 Guild Codex World Read-Along, following the official author reading order! This event is hosted by the wonderful Books of My Heart.
I listened to A Little Warped right after The Alchemist and an Amaretto as part of The Guild Codex audio novel, Hellbound Guilds & Other Misdirections. If you are following the author’s recommended reading order, this short story falls between The Alchemist and an Amaretto and Slaying Monsters for the Feeble.
A Little Warped kicks off a brand-new case for Kit and Liena. While it delivers a quick, standalone adventure, this incredibly brief novella primarily serves as a prequel that sets the stage for the next full Warped installment, Rogue Ghosts and Other Miscreants.
Rated: 3.5 Stars

Thanks for checking out my review Lisa. Happy Reading!
I loved this series so much that I couldn’t skip the shorts or novellas, either.
I’m trying my best to follow the exact reading order and not skip any of the shorts or novellas! We’ll see how it goes, though—it really depends on whether I can track them all down. Thanks for stopping by and visiting, Sophia!
This was interesting but not really a story – right? I love that Kit is investigated the Druid!!
It’s not really a full story, but more like a mini intro to the case they’ll be investigating in the next book.
Wonderful review! This is short but connects well to the other series. Thanks for joining us in the Read-along.
Thanks for stopping by, Anne! Yeah, it was a nice little intro to Kit and what they’ll get up to next.
