This starts on the second day of Kvothe relaying his life story to Chronicler, which encompasses his next term at the university, along with adventures in Severen and Ademre, as well as several places in between. This sees his knowledge and skills increase in several different areas, along with his reputation and the stories about him as they become more widespread.
This is equally as fascinating and engaging to read as the first book, and is written in the same style of beautiful prose that remains easy and enjoyable to read.
I've seen several posts on social media by people who say they will not read these books because the last book has not been published yet. Personally, I would advise you to ignore those comments, as you would be missing a story that is well worth reading. These books are like a biography of Kvothe's life, so it is a series of stories that all combine to create a whole, yet can be enjoyed as they are written since they all follow chronologically from one another.
