THE WISE MAN'S FEAR by Patrick Rothfuss

...being the sequel to the amazing
Here's a question for you? What book can you listen to for 45 hours on audio and then be wishing it would just keep going on forever?

Yes! You got it! (Okay, I guess the title of the blog post gave it away.)

THE WISE MAN'S FEAR by Patrick Rothfuss (Daw, March 1, 2011)




Read this book (or start with
1) You wonder what the wise man does in fact fear.

2) You want the highest quality fantasy in the world today. Yes, it is that good. Seriously, this is epic fantasy at its very best. After reading both books written thus far, the only thing that keeps me from beating my head on the desk and giving up writing entirely is the fact that Pat Rothfuss worked a crazy long time on these books. Go, Pat!

3) You love losing yourself in a masterfully created world. And if you choose the audio option, you'll have 45 hours in which to do the losing.

4) You loved Kvothe in
5) You want to be able to talk about it with all your fantasy-loving friends. Because trust me, this is the series people will be talking about for years to come. Do you really want to be left behind? I didn't think so.

Completely and highly and utterly recommended. 
Best suited for adults and older teens. See (4) above.


From Amazon:

In The Wise Man's Fear, Kvothe searches for answers, attempting to uncover the truth about the mysterious Amyr, the Chandrian, and the death of his parents. Along the way, Kvothe is put on trial by the legendary Adem mercenaries, forced to reclaim the honor of his family, and travels into the Fae realm. There he meets Felurian, the faerie woman no man can resist, and who no man has ever survived...until Kvothe. Now, Kvothe takes his first steps on the path of the hero and learns how difficult life can be when a man becomes a legend in his own time.


Oh, and on a final note, if you don't read Patrick Rothfuss' blog, then start today.
