Welcome to "The Kingkiller Chronicle"

Book I: The Name of the Wind | 5⭐️

Told in Kvothe's own voice, this is the tale of the magically gifted young man who grows to be the most notorious wizard his world has ever seen.

A high-action story written with a poet's hand, The Name of the Wind is a masterpiece that will transport readers into the body and mind of a wizard.

Too many quotes to put into a review….for the first books that’s ever blown my mind…

It is undeniably my now favorite book and I’m painfully aware that’s it’s over—leaving me thirsty for more.

So glad I already have the two installments and there’s no actual reason to panic…but, you know, it’s time to wallow in the emptiness that the story left behind as it ends.

Book II: The Wise Man’s Fear | 5⭐️

“There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.”

In The Wise Man's Fear, 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.

“It was the patient, cut-flower sound of a man who is waiting to die.”

That is the feeling this sequel leaves me…patient, silent, and waiting for something that will never (possibly) come…

Wish with all my heart that there was an end to this series, some answers or resolution to the story.

Guess all I have left is the love and admiration for this series.

Book II.5: The Slow Regard of Silent Things | 3⭐️

The Slow Regard of Silent Things is a brief, bittersweet glimpse of Auri’s life, a small adventure all her own. At once joyous and haunting, this story offers a chance to see the world through Auri’s eyes. And it gives the reader a chance to learn things that only Auri knows...

It’s a bittersweet feeling, reading this book. I was expecting something more….more insight into the series and maybe some answers about what happens after book 2 with Kvothe.

The entire story is just following Auri around in the underthing and literally nothing ever happens. Still left feeling empty and seeking a better ending to the series……which we will not get.

Not how I wanted to end 2023.
