Anything more than two instalments would have been a stretch. I feel like, while there may be more potential in the traveller world, we have managed to squeeze out all the character plots from our two main leads. I am quite content with the fact that this is a duology, and so it is the end of Etta’s and Nicholas’ adventure. I am happy to give it eight full stars, deservedly so, though if it wasn’t for the peculiar ending, the rating may have been higher. Wayfarer takes all the parts I loved about Passenger and dials them up, while diminishing at least some of my faults with the first instalment. With the cast now becoming fuller and more fleshed-out, we learn to appreciate and even – dare I say it? – love the wide ensemble of travellers and guardians we meet across time and space. In the case of Wayfarer, the romance however takes a much needed backseat, and we are finally able to enjoy the crazy ride. I enjoyed Passenger greatly, though I found much fault with the romance overtaking the plot. It rarely happens that a sequel to a book is deemed of higher quality than its predecessor. “That’s an animal with his priorities straight.”
The whole building quaked as it galloped toward the pooling wine. The animal must have weighed well over a thousand pounds.
