I can't defend the book, all the issues you raise are correct. Tigr Send a noteboard - 26/07/2012 02:42:54 PM
But I still found myself completely enthralled with the story and Kvothe as a character. That has to be a testament to Rothfuss' writing skills.

I will grab the third book as soon as it comes out!
