The Kingkiller Chronicles

A couple of months back I finished reading Peter F Hamilton’s excellent Nights Dawn Trilogy and was looking for something new to move onto. I’d seen plenty of recommendations for The Name of the Wind from Patrick Rothfuss so I dived in.

Wow. Unfortunately the world still awaits the third and final(?) book in this series and it can’t come soon enough. In Kvothe, Rothfuss has created a character I find thoroughly fascinating. His story unfolds non-chronologically slowly teasing out a fantastical past with hints at the present that left me unable to put it down. Thoroughly recommended!
