The middle dragged a bit but once we reached Haert, it was full steam ahead. I may have had a few issues with the perfect-ness of Kvothe, but hey. Whatever. Also, I disliked Denna. I loved this book. It's a monster of a book and it's so, so excellent. Patrick Rothfuss' poetic writing swept me off ...
This is the second book in the Kingkiller series. Not quite as good as the first, but it has its moments. In this one Kvothe gets a little randy, with several people and one faerie. The whole Felurian bit seemed to drag for me, but all in all not too bad. Really looking forward to Doors of Stone...
Read By: Nick PodehlTotal Duration: 42:53:14 opening: D AWN WAS COMING. The Waystone Inn lay in silence, and it was a silence of three parts.The most obvious part was a vast, echoing quiet made by things that were lacking. If there had been a storm, raindrops would have tapped...
Ugh. Name of the Wind was a fabulous, detailed, rich beginning to a promising fantasy series. Wise Man's Fear is slow, indulgent, and ultimately pointless. It makes me fear that Rothfuss has no idea where he's going with this.
When I read The Name of the Wind in 2011, it became an instant favorite. I picked up The Wise Man’s Fear expecting to be just as blown away, and while I was thrilled to see that Rothfuss’ prose was still gorgeous, the plots of Rothfuss’s books are two different. While I missed hearing about Kvothe...
Back to fantasy :D. The second book in this series just came out several months ago (it took me forever to finally finish up the book, stupid germs) and so it is fresh on my mind, whereas I read the first book also when it was freshly released and that was a while ago. This all adds up to me mostly ...
Incredible! I read the first book, The Name of the Wind, and this book back to back and there was not one dull patch, although there were not a lot of action scenes. A very non-traditional plot structure with no huge climax, but still riveting. This is the best long story I have read since The Lord...
I'm going to keep this brief:I am half in love with Kvothe. More than half, if I'm honest.This was easily my most eagerly awaited book of the year, and it came out on my birthday. There couldn't have been a better birthday present. It's a rare author who can write a nearly 1000-page book and still...
