Discover #1 New York Times-bestselling Patrick Rothfuss’ epic fantasy series, The Kingkiller Chronicle. “I just love the world of Patrick Rothfuss.” —Lin-Manuel Miranda • “He’s bloody good, this Rothfuss guy.” —George R. R. Martin • “Rothfuss has real talent.” —Terry Brooks DAY TWO: THE WISE MAN’S FEAR “There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.” My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me. So begins a tale told from his own point of view—a story unequaled in fantasy literature.

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.

There is a beauty to Pat's writing that defies description." —Brandon Sanderson, New York Times-bestselling author of Mistborn

Not as good as the first one. Meandered more and involves too much Mary Sue-ing.

La narración sigue siendo impecable, pero ahí donde brillaba El Nombre del Viento, falla su segunda parte: las historias paralelas son demasiado extensas, y da la impresión de que estamos leyendo otro libro completamente distinto.

This book is Fantasy done right. The storytelling ability of Patrick Rothfuss is nothing short of awesome! The only thing that disappoints me about this series is that there is currently only two books and I blew through both of them and now I am left to wait.

Disgustingly entertaining. A dual threat of life lessons and hypnotic entertainment.
