Magi in a Mage-ocracy or Magg-ocracy?
Évalué le: 2021-11-25
This is an established series. Why didn't reader research the pronunciation of core terms used in the first 12+ novels and several related anthologies? It is so grating and disrupts the flow for me. Nevertheless I enjoyed it and hope to hear more about the "kitten" and her family.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 157
From the moment Dara of Westwood spied the Silver Headed Raptor nesting in Rundeval Peak, the precocious redheaded 12-year-old girl was enchanted. The youngest daughter of the Master of the Wood lived in ramshackle Westwood Hall, in the independently minded Westwood estate of Sevendor. Her determination to capture a baby falcon and train it wasn’t hampered by the fact that Dara had never climbed a mountain, had never been trained in falconry, or even remotely had permission from her father to do it.

Some word prononciations were distracting
Évalué le: 2021-06-13
Ms William's prononciation of certain key words differed from the way John Lee pronounced them in all the books of the main Spellmonger series. The one I found most jarring was her modern day pronunciation of "villains", with its negative connotation, where Mr Lee used an archaic pronunciation (rhyming it with "again") which was in keeping with the historic meaning of farmhand or serf. The other differences I could pass over, but hearing a word with overtones of criminal or evil for honest peasants broke the flow for me.
First recorded in 1275–1325; Middle English vilein, vilain “churlish rustic, serf,” from Middle French, from Vulgar Latin and Medieval Latin villānus “a farm servant, farmhand"

My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me. So begins a tale told from his own point of view - a story unequaled in fantasy literature. Now in The Wise Man’s Fear, Day Two of The Kingkiller Chronicle, Kvothe takes his first steps on the path of the hero and learns how difficult life can be when a man becomes a legend in his own time.

I am loving the Kingkiller Chronicles. Patrick Rothfuss has captured me with his characters and story and Nick Podehl's voice carries me well throughout both of the first books. I can't wait to get the third volume when Patrick finishes weaving his magic with the story of Qvothe. You know something is well written and well performed when you can loose your place in a book and fully enjoy skipping back to an earlier point and listen to sections all over again.
