The Wandering Inn #2
Fae and Fare: Book Two, Part One of The Wandering Inn Series
Book Two, Part One in the beloved epic fantasy world and LitRPG sensation created by pirateaba
'You won't find anything like it. The Wandering Inn is a favourite' Matt Dinniman, Sunday Times bestselling author of Dungeon Crawler Carl
Winter has arrived with faeries and…pranks? It’s the first winter that Rags has ever had to survive as the [Chieftain] of a tribe. It might be her last, if she’s not careful.
Liscor seems a lot smaller once you’ve learned about the world. Rags is realizing her tribe might not have a place in the Floodplains anymore. With new dangers threatening her people, she needs to find a place where Goblins can thrive. Surely, there’s somewhere like that out there.
Having survived her first season in Liscor, Erin Solstice is faced with a unique new Winter Sprites, who are capricious and unpredictable, as well as cleaning up after the latest disaster to strike her inn.
However, she’s no longer alone. Earthers have begun appearing all over the world, and this synchronicity is leading to world powers taking note of these strange intrusions into their lands. But that also means meeting friends whom Erin can rely on, right?
It’s time for a new path forwards for everyone. The winter is cold, but for a lost runner, there’s always an inn with an open door, if Ryoka just has the courage to knock.

I realize why I love these books
I have someone to root for, reason to root for them, and plenty of people to interact with said person

I absolutely flew through the first few books of The Wandering Inn and remember thinking, wow… this series is something special. The world feels huge, alive, and incredibly well thought out, with so many storylines and characters somehow all weaving together into something that just works.
What really kept me hooked early on was Erin and Ryoka (forgive me if I’m spelling that wrong 😅). Their stories pulled me in fast, and I loved how the series balances emotional moments, humour, chaos, adventure, politics, and genuinely wild worldbuilding. There’s always something happening, and the cast becomes massive in a way that somehow still feels fun rather than overwhelming.
Books 1–3 completely grabbed me. Book 4 felt slower for me, and I actually drifted a bit during book 5 and ended up taking a break. After reading other things and coming back to it though, I found myself enjoying it again and remembered why I liked the series so much in the first place. Even when it slowed down, the world and characters were still enough to keep me invested.
These audiobooks are absolutely gigantic (seriously, they are a commitment 😅), but they feel like living in a world for a while rather than just reading a story. Not every section hooked me equally, and I missed having more Erin in later parts, but overall this has been such a fun, ambitious, character-filled series that I’m still excited to continue. Onto the next one.

Book2, part 1 984 pages.
Long story but the words flow like a fast river. The current twist, splits and spills over rocks with the pull of gravity taking one to a destiny in the great ocean.
Many assorted and interesting characters. Fun world / Universe building. Plots overlap with other plots.

I am rereading the series and still looking it. I love reading the story again and understanding the story ahead. I can now see how it was getting there. Seeing the little Easter eggs throughout is very fun.

I tried and tried but couldn't get through the Internet type trolling and flaming. I get enough of that crap in the real world.
peace out to a promising series.

I thought this one started a bit slow, but things definitely picked up later. I really like how far the story spreads with different story lines that are all connected underneath. Good stuff.
