The Driftcap Inn

By: Valent, Kate

Howl's Moving Castle meets Legends & Lattes in this cozy fantasy set on a magical inn in the sky.

Welcome to The Driftcap Inn, a cozy perch among the clouds. Drift on in and stay awhile

In all of Itharos no inn is more enchanting-or peculiar-than The Driftcap Inn, a cozy haven in the sky carved from a giant floating mushroom. Its owner, Eino the Wanderer, enjoys a life of breathtaking views and freedom from the petty wars and political intrigue of the kingdoms below. But a home set adrift in the vast, empty skies can also be unbearably lonely.

When a handsome and enigmatic apothecary named Joren comes aboard, an unexpected companionship blossoms between the two men, stirring the possibility of something deeper. But their peaceful journey through the clouds is shattered when a string of unsettling events threatens to send Eino's home plummeting to the ground.

Something wicked is spreading its roots across The Driftcap Inn, and Eino suspects there's much more to it than just bad luck. With dark secrets surrounding every guest and danger creeping ever closer, Eino must decide who he can trust with his life - and with his heart.
