I find this book to be beautiful. The way Rothfuss uses literary devices to foreshadow events and provide exposition is beautiful. Compared to other authors, I find Rothfuss’ use of exposition and worldbuilding to be masterfully crafted. If you’re looking for a slow paced and intricate look into the stereotypical hero arc story than you’re looking in the right place.
