A great magician, music genius, hero and villain - persuaded by the Chronicler - remembers his colorful life. From childhood spent in a troupe of traveling actors, through boyhood years spent in the underworld of a dark city, to a crazy but successful attempt to enter the University. He is driven by the desire to wield magic and to take revenge on the demons that killed his parents and turned his entire world to dust. An incredibly vivid and natural tale told on a Homeric scale. Kvothe's intriguing and moving odyssey harmonizes perfectly with the non-intrusive fantasy atmosphere. This literary debut won several prestigious awards, incl. Quill Award and Onion AV Club. Publication rights have already been sold to more than 20 countries. It is an extremely rare pleasure to find an author who writes with the precision necessary to create not only fantasy, in whose words real music sounds. - Ursula K. Le Guin The book has everything that fantasy readers like: magic, secrets, ancient evil. But it's also fun and scary, and compelling. Following the example of the best books in the genre, it is not the fantasy elements that make it extraordinary, but what the author has to say about everyday affairs, ordinary life, ambitions and failures, art, love and loss. - Tad Williams Patrick Rothfuss studiował m.in. chemię, psychologię i literaturę angielską. Jest wykładowcą akademickim w Wisconsin. Gdy nie czyta (nałogowo) i nie pisze, marnuje czas na gry komputerowe i eksperymenty z formułami alchemicznymi.
