Este libro es impresionante, me ha encantado. No le doy 5 estrellas porque sé que el segundo libro va a ser todavía mejor. Kvothe es un claro ejemplo de crecimiento personal, menuda pasada de personaje. Lo recomendaría a todo el mundo.

This book feels like it was written by a Reddit dude. Seriously. Given the rave reviews I thought this would be a good fantasy book. Instead I was met with a male Mary Sue. The MC is the most specialist boy and everyone thinks he’s great and the people that don’t are assholes. He’s the smartest, everybody is attracted to him, he’s so pretty, etc. There’s an “and everybody clapped moment” and I rolled my eyes so hard they about fell out of my head. The MC also talks really weird about any female characters, of which there are barely any. Female characters apparently only exist to be “surprisingly attractive” to the main character or in some other service. I tried to push myself to continue reading this book but I found I wasn’t invested in reading about the most specialist boy and the multiple plot lines that go nowhere.

Likely be a reread, esp once the third book comes out. 

The only negative thing I have to say is the pacing was funny. I thought the book reached a good ending point and there were 500 pages left. Then again and 200 pages left. Then the book actually ended and it felt mid sentence! 

Perhaps the intended effect…

I love Rothfuss’  the writing style, and I find his world building creative and engaging. Refreshing to read high-fantasy that doesn’t rely on egregious systemic sexual violence in order to legitimize itself. My one major critique is that the main character has a very “she’s not like other girls” take on his love interest, which I found annoying and cringey.
