one of the best fantasy books of all time and the story isn't even over yet :)

I'm reading the first Mistborn right now! It's really good so far. Usually books take a while to get into but Mistborn totally captures you from the beginning. I'm not totally into fantasy books but Name of the Wind has gotten me into it. It's completely in its own league.

Read both. I'm reading Wilbur Smith novels, the Ancient Egypt series, to keep myself relatively sane, right now. Warlocks+mythology+boredom=rea
ding fun -
Oh Scott Lynch is pretty much up there for me read his work before Patrick Rothfuss' can't wait for republic of thieves, wiill check out wheel of time, P.S you should try Mistborn trilogy by brandon sanderson.

I can definitely vouch for the wheel of time it is a very interesting series with a few flaws that can be a little annoying at times but don't totally take away from the value of the books. Plus if you like Patrick Rothfuss I'd say its a locke ;) that you'll love both Lies of Locke Lamora and Red Seas under Red Skies which is its sequel. Scott Lynch and Pat are definitely to young fast rising stars.

Good News dear sir, the manuscript of the wise man's fear has been submitted to the publisher and shall soon be out, most likely this fall. If you or anyone else who sees this needs a book recommendation to keep you busy till then I suggest you take up A Game of Thrones and work your way through the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George RR Martin. Or the Dresden files are pretty awsome too. :)

BEST. BOOK. EVER! I find the style entirely original. I read a freakish amount of books, and normally don't pause after finishing one. And yet, after I finished, I reread it twice that week. And again, and again. I learned most of the songs and poems, I commited many lines of dialouge to heart, and I lost sleep about the sequel and its dissapearing release date.... APRIL 20th WAS TEN DAYS AGO! I felt privledged to read this book, something that hasn't happened since my first exposure to Tolkein.

y me too^^
I read the first part in german and...
The Translator did make shit...
it was half engish/german^^
So i read the next in english...
it's a genious book. Rothfuss did make connections from the beginning till the end.
It's a great style, the author did make a perfect job.
I read about 20 books a month (Yes, im not normal) and then i go out all the evenings...
but that does not matter. Indeed, i read this book and the second time i read it was DEFINETLY better than the first. the third wasn't better, i found the first leaks, but it's just great. My favorite book.

This is an amazing book, and I definitely agree that the second reading is better while the third is lacking a bit. The sequel is coming out in april sometime I do so believe. Whenever it comes out I've already got it reserved.
