Awesome

I am binge listening to the series. The only thing I would change is that I would add more mango. This series is EASILY in my Top Five.

lol ..........Spoiler warning

the way they just skipped the entire story about the sea monster getting killed. like you're preparing for the entire story ark but then nothing happens of it. I was waiting for it to be elaborated on later, but it never happens. I thought when they mentioned the bards signing of it we would know more. it is funny how she's a bit jealous of it too.

Progression

A good story progression characters you love and hate karma believable behaviors book 2 has a valid cast.

Cool Series

Fun read with cool characters. A refreshing spin on action especially if you are interested in fantasy healers. I am a massage therapist and loved the fantasy medical drama.

This series remains great

The system is engaging, the world grounded but fantastical, the characters realistic and fun. The only thing I would say it lacks is twists within twists. But this is an adventure book with elements of mystery so lacking convoluted misdirection is probably for the best. If you like book 1 it's much the same with more exploration of the world.



Small not relevant spoiler ahead. Ending the book on an interlude that expanded concepts of the system was a great way to create the disconnect. Unlike with book 1 I was very satisfied with this ending.

Pure immersion pleasure

What a happy find! I only discovered (through The Wandering Inn fans) the novels of Selkie Myth a week ago, and found I already owned two in Audible I must have acquired in a big sale event. I will buy more when my annual credits appear in two days. I find these stories compelling, pure escapism, and a story I don't drift away from when listening. I do not share any of the complaints I read from others. The tension from wanting to overcome the sexist, patriarchal world, the stat blocks, the poor decisions, all of them add to my immersion. A fine read! The author's talents impress me, as do the narrator's. Warmly recommended. Keep an open mind and simply wallow in the pleasure of escaping our world and entering another.

Still a fun romp, with lots of stats

I personally find the story full of humour, zest and sillyness but in a good way.
Yes there are a lot of stats but I decided to not let it annoy me and so it didn’t. Mostly it was woven into the narration, but a few times you get hit with it out of the blue.
The narrator does a good job, but I wish there were more pauses as I sometimes found it hard to keep my attention on the very long inner monologues and had to rewind.
Otherwise a good 4 star book all around.

Addition after book 7:
The series get better and the world building we only get hints of now will get more detailed as it progresses and “loose” ends tie together one after another while new plot twists get introduced.

I do recommend the series

Book 2 Success

An excellent continuation of the series of a small preview of Elaine's future prospects, in more ways than one.

good book to much stats

I really don't like the minimum word count requirements for audible reviews. . . .

enjoyed but…

I’d say that over all it’s a good story, it’s kept me listening, kept my attention while driving and at work. Bought the next book because beside the small issues I have, want to see where the story goes.

Would I say get the book. Well if you listened to the first one and want to see where it goes yes, by now you’d know if it was your cup of tea or not.

My only issue, and it seems to be on course with other reviews. The leveling system is odd, but what gets me pulled out a bit each time is the random stat breakdown of the MC,
Talking about flowers, boom! Stat page, she didn’t level up before, didn’t change a skill, just random stat break down for no reason based on the current moment in the story, maybe just a page filler?
That’s really the one thing that bugged me the most.


Overall. I enjoyed it. Going to start the next book because I do want to see where it goes. Hope this helped
