The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #1)

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

A very long book for how much actually happens. However, I enjoyed the kind of slow-paced vibe, because I don't always like feeling rushed, like I'm watching a fantasy adventure movie, when there's plenty of time to just sit and enjoy. I'm interested to read the second one since this one definitely feels like a prequel- kind of like The Way of Kings- you can tell a lot more will happen once you establish the world.

The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #1)

Patrick Rothfuss

Told in Kvothe's own voice, this is the tale of the magically gifted young man who grows to be the most notorious wizard his world has ever seen. The intimate narrative of his childhood in a troupe of traveling players, his years spent as a near-feral orphan in a crime-ridden city, his daringly brazen yet successful bid to enter a legendary school of magic, and his life as a fugitive after the murder of a king form a gripping coming-of-age story unrivaled in recent literature. A high-action story written with a poet's hand, The Name of the Wind is a masterpiece that will transport readers into the body and mind of a wizard.

Exceptional writing. I really liked the plot and how everything came together. Definitely a large undertaking for a book- lots of things happen, but I think it was overwhelming in a fun way, like watching an adventure movie.
