The Wise Man's Fear

An excellent follow up to the Name of the Wind. The only downside to finishing this book is that Book 3 is not written yet (or at least not published). Kvothe continues recounting his tale to the Chronicler, as events in the little town unfold slowly. Like in the first book, there's intrigue, danger, magic, and, of course, lots of learning. I love the world that has been created here; the mythologies of the different peoples are fascinating.

Definitely read The Name of the Wind and then The Wise Man's Fear. I have to limit my recommendation to adults because there is some sexual content - it's not super graphic, but I most youth would squirm a bit at the reading.
