The Wandering Inn

The Wandering Inn, Book 1

De: pirateaba

Narrado por: Andrea Parsneau

The Wandering Inn, Book 1, has been rewritten by pirateaba and re-recorded by Andrea Parsneau. This revised edition includes new scenes and perspectives.

"No killing Goblins."

So reads the sign outside of The Wandering Inn, a small building run by a young woman named Erin Solstice. She serves pasta with sausage, blue fruit juice, and dead acid flies on request. And she comes from another world. Ours.

It's a bad day when Erin finds herself transported to a fantastical world and nearly gets eaten by a Dragon. She doesn't belong in a place where monster attacks are a fact of life, and where Humans are one species among many. But she must adapt to her new life. Or die.

In a dangerous world where magic is real and people can level up and gain classes, Erin Solstice must battle somewhat evil Goblins, deadly Rock Crabs, and hungry [Necromancers]. She is no warrior, no mage. Erin Solstice runs an inn. She's an [Innkeeper].

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Worth it in the end!

The first half of the book was great and annoying off and on, but the author improves steadily making the second half 5 stars. I just finished reading volume 2 on her website and it’s 6 stars with no annoyances! It was so worth getting this far and there is a ton of story already written to keep going.

The characters are so unique and believable. It has LOL comedy, drama, battle, politics, tragedy to some extent, small every day cute stories, and a complex world.

The narrator did a fantastic job as usual!

A Truly Wandering Story

I do not typically write good reviews. It is easy to write bad ones criticizing the book and pointing out major plot holes. I don't remember the last positive review I left. I will say that I only starting liking the story about 2 or 3 hours in. Slow burn does not cover it. It starts at a snails pace. Nothing is going on Erin for example does not leave 500 feet from the inn for the first 5ish hours. At one point she rushes past a stream and then right afterwards completely forgets she has done so. But then she plays CHESS. And the music and culture references start coming in.
EVERY character gets so much depth and attention to detail! Anyone of them can die. There would be one happy chapter, followed by a blissful moment and then a full on bass drop exploring the depths of pure HELL. Comical and unimportant moments that led to a catastrophic and very logical outcomes. One simple comment you didn't pay any mind to three seconds ago dumps you into the gutting and then pulls you into the sewer....("I'll keep them from bothering you Erin")
Nothing is typical. Your typical hero wants to be an adventurer, a hero, someone bad-ass and powerful. But what if they just were angry at the world or hated killing. Not just someone who has anger problem or just gets over killing at the start but really truly stays angry and truly does not like violence.There are no characters to fall in love with or be devoted to. No perfection or heroism is demonstrated in this book by the main characters. It's real though, real and dirty.

better than I expected

it's great hearing the actual names on the people. the story feels more gripping here. pirate is and has been a great writer. you would be hard pressed to find a better story.

Don't under the high rating

What makes this book bearable is the narratorion.

The main character is pathetic which makes it hard to get into. To much crying, denial and doubt which she really never overcomes.

Not sure why the additional characters. For such a long book they don't go anywhere. Its almost like 2 stories in one. Multiple times they cross but never really integrate.

Is that really how women think? Kind of scary if so!

Wonderful book, great narration!

Great book and beginning to an amazing series. This is not my favorite book in the series, but great nonetheless. I can't wait for the other volumes to come out.

I need more

This book/webseries is so unbelievably good that after marathoning the book I bought volume 2 on kindle and subscribed to the webseries to read 3-6. Please make more of these. It is snarky and funny sarcastic and full of every emotion. Think sword art online, but not set in an ACTUAL video game. The main characters are great, and well rounded just like everyone else in the series and the world this is set in is vast. I’m not joking there’s a lot to unpack, but you will not be let down. I haven’t liked a series this much since LOTR and even that I feel is less than this series. I can’t recommend this enough, it’s worth every penny.

Masterfully Written

I was astonished by this creative work of written word. A must read by any standards! It will take you away from reality and transport you into another world. I cannot wait for part two... in the interim I will listen to this tale again!

Thank you.

I'd like to say thank you to the author for an amazing book. I EAGERLY await the next audible installment. excellent book.

It was great but...

Don't get me wrong, this was an amazing story. BUT there were times when I definitely wanted to stop listening. The first MC we're introduced to is so damn annoying and then the second is kinda better and was my favorite until the author decided to make her personality take a 180.
There are also some small hiccups in the story where it feels like the author didn't know what to do next and things turn random.
Also some may label this as Litrpg, but it really isn't. The fantasy world does have levels and skills but the two MC's don't care and barely do anything with them. Wouldn't recommend this to anyone wanting a high Def Litrpg experience. Though if you want to read about a fantasy world with minor game characteristics, give it a shot

Great if you love the details

I've seen alot of negative reviews about this book, and I get it. This book has a great story that really dives in to the nitty gritty details of this woman's adventure. If you are just looking for a fast paced narrative, this book may not be for you, but if you want an entertaining story that you can relate to and listen to for hours, than this audible may just be what you are looking for.
