Epic. Beautiful. This book is rereadable, refreshing, re...uhm... Yes. Epic fantasy, music, magic, death, legends, living legends, life, and all the other good stuff. ^_^

There has been much written about this book as far as reviews go. I won't really waste your time with my feeble thoughts, only, I will say that this book is fantastic! I started it and was unable to put it down. One of the best fantasy novels I have read since "Game of Thrones." So go read it if you like fantasy at all. the second volume was just published as well. ...more

Despite my initial annoyances with the narrator's voice, I really fell into the story. So much so, in fact, that I drove right past my street on the way home one night. I know that I'm at risk of being horribly disappointed with however Rothfuss winds up the story, but for now, simply wonderful.

I loved the way the early story is wrapped within the current story, how it points out mysteries of greater scope, and the great in-character humor.

I always have my eye out for a good fantasy book. I am not a fantasy geek. But I appreciate the genre and in my opinion this is a damn good book.
