Reviews
"The debut of a writer we would all do well to watch. Patrick Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous ." -Terry Brooks "The great new fantasy writer we've all been waiting for." -Orson Scott Card "The type of assured, rich first novel most writers can only dream of producing. The fantasy world has a new star ." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) " Refreshingly nimble and off-beat ...a finely-tuned coming-of-age story, full of humor, action and the occasional dose of magic." - San Francisco Chronicle " One of the best stories told in any medium in a decade." - The Onion "A rare and great pleasure." -Ursula K. LeGuin "Elegantly told." - Library Journal (starred review), "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 "Jordan and Goodkind must be looking nervously over their shoulders!" -- Kevin J. Anderson , New York Times -bestselling author of The Dark Between the Stars "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. Tolkein, 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), "The debut of a writer we would all do well to watch. Patrick Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous ." -Terry Brooks "The great new fantasy writer we've all been waiting for." -Orson Scott Card "The type of assured, rich first novel most writers can only dream of producing.

Synopsis
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 OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD! DAY ONE: THE NAME OF THE WIND My name is Kvothe. I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep. You may have heard of me. So begins a tale unequaled in fantasy literature--the story of a hero told in his own voice. It is a tale of sorrow, a tale of survival, a tale of one man's search for meaning in his universe, and how that search, and the indomitable will that drove it, gave birth to a legend., Discover #1 New York Times -bestselling Patrick Rothfuss' epic fantasy series, The Kingkiller Chronicle.

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseDon't bother with this seller. Obviously they don't care about sales. Never sent. Never responded to multiple messages. Guess I will get a refund. What a waste of time.

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseA bit annoyed that they haven't even dropped this off at the post office yet! I only ordered from them because they are in the same metropolitan area. I ordered a similar game from another seller out of state on the same day and it is arriving today. The ETA for this seller is Saturday. Honestly with regular mail if they dropped this off it would have arrived to me by now. I'm trying to finish this game in time for the new one. They are cutting into my time table.
