I took my time through my re-read because of the long wait, but in all senses of the word, this is a beautiful read. Breathtakingly stunning prose and world-building, The Name of the Wind lives up to all expectations and crushes it beyond recognition. A must-read for anyone interested in music, stories and storytelling, and multiplicities.
