Novel, Fantasy by Patrick Rothfuss

Blurb

The riveting first-person narrative of a young man who grows to be the most notorious magician his world has ever seen. From his childhood in a troupe of traveling players, to years spent as a near-feral orphan in a crime- ridden city, to his daringly brazen yet successful bid to enter a legendary school of magic, The Name of the Wind is a masterpiece that transports readers into the body and mind of a wizard. It is a high-action novel written with a poet's hand, a powerful coming-of-age story of a magically gifted young man, told through his eyes: to read this book is to be the hero.

Fun story and magic system but meandering and ultimately unsatisfying.

Decent story, but the author is amazingly long winded making this book more dressing that meat.

Nach Herr der Ringe eine sehr schöne Fantasy Geschichte, die mich in Ihre Welt aufsog...für mich ein herrlich kurzweiliger Zeitvertreib ...

One of the greatest novels I've ever read. I was enthralled and devoured it.

Einstieg in eine der besten Fantasy-Geschichten der jüngeren Zeit. Kritikpunkt: Die Gegenspieler "Chandrian" und deren Motive bleiben zu sehr im Hintergrund

Ein Standard-Fantasy-Roman mit Magie und schimmerndem Helden ... denkt man zuerst. Trotzdem kann das Buch (und auch seine Fortsetzungen) gut fesseln. An manchen Stellen hätte man gut auch etwas kürzen können, trotzdem lesenswert, wenn man etwas freie Zeit mit leicher Lektüre überbrücken will.

With this one, I made a fascinating observation. Either you love it, or you hate it. Well. I loved it. So, so much. I read it a couple of days ago, and I just can't stop thinking about it. So great! I loved Rothfuss' beautiful world and everything in it. He created such darkness and such beauty in everything. The cities, the tales, the music, the characters. He is the master of realness and inbetweens. No black and whites. No fake perfection. But a realness that is so rare in fantasy. I loved everything about it. So in love with this. And Patrick Rothfuss. That man deserves a cookie!

Among the worst books I've read, right down there with 50 Shades of Gray. Hours of my life wasted; I'm embarrassed that I finished a book with so little merit. I thought it was so bad that I'm disappointed in the friend who recommended it.

El único libro que ha conseguido hacerme reír, llorar y pasar miedo por el protagonista. Nos encontramos ante fantasía que se aleja de las historias típicas de elfos, dragones y enanos, y nos muestra a un hombre que pudo ser todo, y que sin embargo, no le queda nada.
