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 challenge: 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.

What people say about The Wandering Inn

“Pirateaba is an amazing world builder, and as a writer, I am in awe of their story constructing skills….The Wandering Inn is a favorite… You won’t find anything else like it.”

– Matt Dinniman, New York Times Bestselling Author of Dungeon Crawler Carl

“5/5 stars. An absolutely extraordinary book that absolutely shattered my expectations in every way.”

– Matt’s Fantasy Reviews

“Okay, so it’s a long story, but what’s it about? Yes, it’s cozy and cheerful, but it’s also dramatic, tragic, adventurous, and fantastic. In fact, it’s by far the most over-the-top fantastic fantasy I’ve read. It’s as cozy as Legends & Latte, as epic as Malazan, and as fantastic as Warcraft.”

– Nils Indie Reviews

“My girlfriend and I call these books the “cursed books” because we cannot stop reading.”

– Ice

“Its a story of wonder and friendship, but ultimately I think its a story about discovering what makes you a person.”
