"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.

  • One of my favorite Books- PATRICK ROTHFUSS WHERE IS BOOK #3!?

    This book is so amazing. If you or someone you know likes fantasy, adventure, and an epic story unlike any other- READ THIS BOOK. It will absorb you into it and leave you begging for more!! I remember there being one part that was a little slow to get through, but let me tell you, it didn't last long. AND GET THIS. There is a sequel which I would honestly rate even better than the first, how often does that happen? AND THE FIRST IS SO FREAKING GOOD. Absolutely authentic and original. If you are unsure about reading it, try it, you won't be disappointed!
