DAY ONE: THE NAME OF THE WIND

My name is Kvothe.

I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep.

You may have heard of me.

So begins a tale unequaled in fantasy literature-the story of a hero told in his own voice. It is a tale of sorrow, a tale of survival, a tale of one man’s search for meaning in his universe, and how that search, and the indomitable will that drove it, gave birth to a legend.

Praise for The Kingkiller Chronicle:

The best epic fantasy I read last year…. He’s bloody good, this Rothfuss guy.

-George R. R. Martin, New York Times-bestselling author of A Song of Ice and Fire

Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous.

-Terry Brooks, New York Times-bestselling author of Shannara

It is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing…with true music in the words.

-Ursula K. Le Guin, award-winning author of Earthsea

The characters are real and the magic is true.

-Robin Hobb, New York Times-bestselling author of Assassin’s Apprentice

Masterful…. There is a beauty to Pat’s writing that defies description.

-Brandon Sanderson, New York Times-bestselling author of Mistborn
