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.

Rothfuss takes his time and it's worth it. Can't wait to read more by him and explore this world more!
Even better than the first book. This IS the best fantasy series without a shadow of a doubt.
I enjoyed the process of reading it. In many ways it's better than the first book. It doesn't really feel like a complete book in and of itself, but I guess I can live with that - if it was 500 pages I would have felt ripped off, but at 1000 it's hard to complain.
I have no idea how he's going to finish the storyline in one more book though, 1000 pages or not. We'll have to see if he pulls a dust of dreams / crippled god.
