Recensioner

I went into this knowing it would be odd; the author tells us so at the start. I wanted to learn more about Auri, but all I did was confirm that she probably suffers from OCD and may have been sexually assaulted at some point. It’s beautifully written, but not really my cup of tea.

I liked this book but I didn’t love it the way I did The Name of the Wind. I definitely could have done without the pages and pages of adolescent male sexual fantasy. Being neither male nor adolescent it was totally lost in me.

I read this for the "A Book Picked Out By Someone Else" part of my 2019 reading challenge. It was different than I expected it to be, but I really enjoyed it and look forward to hearing more about Kvothe's life.

For our book club, I'd picked The Name of the Wind as I wanted to try what was being purported to be a great fantasy novel. Gave it 2.5 stars because it just didn't go anywhere. Another club member upon his turn to pick a book chose The Wise Man's Fear, the second installment. I reluctantly agreed and found it to be just as long winded and rudderless.

Make no mistake: Rothfuss can write. But being a good writer and being able to tell a good story are clearly two different things. There's really little story between the two books. I got halfway through this one and just had to call it quits.… (mer)
