Praise for Patrick Rothfuss: "As seamless and lyrical as a song... This breathtakingly epic story is heartrending in its intimacy and masterful in its narrative essence." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Reminiscent in scope of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series and similar in feel to the narrative tour de force of The Arabian Nights , this masterpiece of storytelling will appeal to lovers of fantasy on a grand scale." - Library Journal (starred review) "It is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing...with true music in the words.... Wherever Pat Rothfuss goes...he'll carry us with him as a good singer carries us through a song." -Ursula K LeGuin " The Wise Man's Fear is a beautiful book to read. Masterful prose, a sense of cohesion to the storytelling, a wonderful sense of pacing.... There is beauty to Pat's writing that defies description." -Brandon Sanderson "Patrick Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous." -Terry Brooks "[Rothfuss is] the great new fantasy writer we've been waiting for, and this is an astonishing book." -Orson Scott Card "As with all very best books in our field, it's not the fantasy trappings (as wonderful as they are) that make this novel so good, but what the author has to say about true, common things, about ambition and failure, art, love, and loss." -Tad Williams "This is an extremely immersive story set in a flawlessly constructed world and told extremely well." -Jo Walton, Tor.com "It is the best book I have read it years, fantasy or otherwise.... The world is so deep, the stakes are so high, the characters so real, the mysteries so magical, the magic so mysterious, the plot so twisty…every day you haven't read it is a day in your life that could be better." -Hank Green "This fast-moving, vivid, and unpretentious debut roots its coming-of-age fantasy in convincing mythology." - Entertainment Weekly, Praise for The Kingkiller Chronicle " The best epic fantasy I read last year. ... He's bloody good, this Rothfuss guy." --George R. R. Martin, New York Times -bestselling author of A Song of Ice and Fire "Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous ." --Terry Brooks, New York Times -bestselling author of Shannara "It is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing...with true music in the words ." --Ursula K. LeGuin, award-winning author of Earthsea "The characters are real and the magic is true ." --Robin Hobb, New York Times -bestselling author of Assassin's Apprentice " Masterful .... There is a beauty to Pat's writing that defies description." --Brandon Sanderson, New York Times -bestselling author of Mistborn " [Makes] you think he's inventing the genre , instead of reinventing it." --Lev Grossman, New York Times -bestselling author of The Magicians "This is a magnificent book ." --Anne McCaffrey, award-winning author of the Dragonriders of Pern " The great new fantasy writer we've been waiting for , and this is an astonishing book." --Orson Scott Card, New York Times -bestselling author of Ender's Game "It's not the fantasy trappings (as wonderful as they are) that make this novel so good, but what the author has to say about true, common things , about ambition and failure, art, love, and loss." --Tad Williams, New York Times -bestselling author of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn "An extremely immersive story set in a flawlessly constructed world and told extremely well." --Jo Walton, award-winning author of Among Others "Hail Patrick Rothfuss! A new giant is striding the land ." --Robert J. Sawyer, award-winning author of Wake " Fans of the epic high fantasies of George R.R. Martin or J.R.R. Tolkien will definitely want to check out Patrick Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind ." --NPR " Shelve The Name of the Wind beside The Lord of the Rings ...and look forward to the day when it's mentioned in the same breath, perhaps as first among equals." --The A.V. Club "Rothfuss (who has already been compared to the likes of Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, and George R. R. Martin) is poised to be crowned the new king of epic fantasy ." --Barnes & Noble "I was reminded of Ursula K. Le Guin, George R. R. Martin, and J. R. R. Tolkien , but never felt that Rothfuss was imitating anyone." -- The London Times "This fast-moving, vivid, and unpretentious debut roots its coming-of-age fantasy in convincing mythology." -- Entertainment Weekly "This breathtakingly epic story is heartrending in its intimacy and masterful in its narrative essence ." -- Publishers Weekly (starred) "Reminiscent in scope of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series...this masterpiece of storytelling will appeal to lovers of fantasy on a grand scale." -- Library Journal (starred), Praise for Patrick Rothfuss: "As seamless and lyrical as a song...

    N/A. Seller was extremely accommodating considering I canceled at the last minute. Would recommend seller to anyone looking to purchase from them. It looks like feedback wants me to mention rate of shipping, packaging, description, and value even though I didn’t buy. Thank you to the seller for understanding.

    I purchased two books from this seller and they combined the shipping. I was actually credited BACK part of the shipping savings. Books were exactly as described and with new Brodart dust jacket covers. Mint condition. Books were packaged with care and were well protected. Shipping time was expeditious and the seller’s communication with me was above and beyond. I highly recommend and will definitely be doing business with again. Thanks so much.

  • She washes her hands, her face and her feet, you got 1/4 of the book

    There was such a Great Possibility and it left me very unsatisfied. No doubt I was going to buy the next Rothfuss novel, I really should have waited for the novel, it will be out any time now, or 2025 if I understand rightly. Really enjoyed the first two, do yourself a favor and give this a skip.

  • Best Book Ever

    If you are reading this and haven't read this book yet, I'm sincerely jealous that you get to go on the journey for the very first time! This is one of the best books ever written in our time, and I think just about anyone who has read it will tell you the same. It's not only a fun, compelling, suspenseful read that you will not be able to put down, it's literature. Rothfuss' motifs about storytelling and narration, performing and music, and of course the wind will fascinate even the snobbiest readers (of whom I would count myself among). This is a work which will be studied and read long, long, long after we are all dead and gone. It's just great, great, great reading, and you should get it in hardback and put it on your top shelf and worship as much as I do! It's pure genius but at the ...

  • My favorite of the series

    While this was written as a side project, it quickly became my favorite book due to the focus on Auri. I was exceptionally pleased to find a 1st Ed, 1st Printing of this novel. O'm even getting it signed this weekend.
