You know, as much as I think Patrick Rothfuss could pare down his books by a few hundred pages, I didn't really want this one to end. I liked this one a lot better than The Name of the Wind, or I was in a more patient mood. It's hard to say.

Although this is not a fast-paced book, I really enjoyed it, save for Kvothe's time with Felurian, which I felt was dragged on way too long and got boring. Other than that I liked all the changes in scenery, and the different places Kvothe went.

I'm really excited for the third book, which is unexpected, because after reading the first I didn't think I'd continue on at all.
