I am rating this book 5 stars but only because that is the highest it will let me go. This sequel definitely did not disappoint and I enjoyed just as much as the first book. I cannot possibly fathom how Patrick Rothfuss comes up with the ideas that he does for his books. He breaks down the complex ideas of science, magic, faith, and politics and then intertwines again them so well that every chapter had me in awe. I laughed, cried, and yelled at the audiobook alone in my car every morning/evening on my way to and from work and I had so much fun doing it! I have never physically ached for a next book in a series the way I do now. PLEASE PATRICK GIVE US SOME NEWS ABOUT THE NEXT ONE, I NEED IT!!!
