The Name of the Wind

by Patrick Rothfuss

FantasyEpic

Published 2007

Discover #1 New York Times-bestselling Patrick Rothfuss’ epic fantasy series, The Kingkiller Chronicle. “I just love the world of Patrick Rothfuss.” —Lin-Manuel Miranda OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD! 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.

The legendary Kvothe, now an innkeeper, recounts his extraordinary life story. His voice should convey both the weary wisdom of his present and the youthful confidence and pain of his past, shifting seamlessly between the two.

“This voice is male and explicitly described as 'Deep and Mysterious,' aligning well with Kvothe's confident and enigmatic persona. Its ability to bring 'intensity' and 'dramatic twists' supports the character's need for a voice that can convey both past youthful confidence and present weary wisdom, suitable for an epic fantasy narrative.”
