The Wise Man's Fear

In the second book of Patrick Rothfuss's Kingkiller Chronicle, titled The Wise Man's Fear, innkeeper Kote continues telling about his life as young Kvothe. While I still wouldn't call this would-be(-maybe?) trilogy one of my favorites, I wouldn't mind reading its conclusion one day.

The Name of the Wind

Before starting The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss, one should be aware that the series's completion seems uncertain at this time. Its first volume came out in 2007 and the second was published in 2011 but third book is still on its way. In this year's July, Rothfuss's editor, Betsy Wollheim, wrote that she has never seen a word of book three and she believes the author has not written anything for six years. Her words may have been colored by her frustration but Rothfuss sure has been taking his time.
