The Wandering Inn
2016 · pirateaba · 688 pages · LitRPG
The Wandering Inn is one of the most ambitious works of fantasy fiction being written today, and its scale alone makes it remarkable. The slice-of-life approach to a LitRPG world creates something wholly different from anything else in the genre, and the character work improves dramatically as the series finds its voice. Early rough patches and the sheer commitment required to engage with the story limit its audience, but readers who push through the first volume's uneven stretches tend to become devoted fans. This is fantasy at its most sprawling, patient, and eventually rewarding.
