The Name of the Wind
The Name of the Wind
"The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss & its sequel "Wise Man's Fear" are fantastic adventures. They are both the best books I've read recently.
The Kingkiller chronicle (Book 3 is not out yet) by Patrick Rothfuss are the most remarkable books I've read recently. I was absolutely enamored reading these books, reading through the first one fanatically & listening to the second book like a monk in a sermon.
These books are very well written; the characters are all enjoyable to read, the events interesting & exciting, & the tempo is well balanced to keep you excited. The series is written in a unusual perspective where the main character, past his prime, is telling the story for another to write down. It results in a fantastical story & great insight of character. I won't do a full review here, that may come another time, however, my general rating for the "The Name of the Wind" is 9/10 & "Wise Man's Fear" at 8/10. The books are over displays of glamor, where the main character is unrealistically perfect but the balance of excitement with trepid story results in a grand adventure.
My only major complaint is the main love interest. She annoys me greatly, and the main character is enamored with her purely out of adolescent misguidance. She continually is ungrateful & lives her life in a horrid way that distracts the main character.
