Holy freaking God!
This was bloody amazing! Definitely one of the best fantasy books I've read.
First of all, I love stories within stories. My brain really liked the narrative structure of this book. It was such an immersive experience and I loved every second of it.
I don't even know where to start with Kvothe. I was reading this story about this incredibly awesome, genius man and by the end of it I realised he's still only supposed to be 15 years old while all this is happening. He's rather incredible.
I could waffle on for hours about how cool the magic system was and how much I loved the story telling but really you just need to read this book.

it wasn't speaking to me, when I read fantasy usually by 100 pages I'm already invested in the story and world building but it was too slow for me. Maybe I'll give it another chance in a few years
This story gets bogged down in itself. You have no real plot or overarching conflict and no satisfying ending, except if you count his constant money woes. I cared about Kvothe, but seriously, how long is this series and Rothfuss isn't even close to getting to the point of the whole thing. I'm not reading the 2nd book.

A mix
I really enjoyed this book. The decision to mix first-person and third-person storytelling worried me at first, but it was well-blended by Rothfuss. I like the background of the main character and his solutions to problems are fascinating. Not exactly a traditional fantasy story, but blending a lot of those fantasy elements without becoming formulaic. There is not quite as much world-building as I might have liked, but that's nit-picking. I finished this and immediately wanted to jump right into the next one. Very good.
probablemente mi saga favorita, el lenguaje, la poesía, los diálogos, los personajes, la construcción de mundo, las teorías brutal brutal (pensando que kvothe es narrador poco fiable, porque lo de mary sue no se sostiene)

I really liked the narrative gimmick of being told this story campfire style. I immediately jumped into the second book, A Wise Man's Fear.
