It Was In Startling Disarray


(Contains minor spoilers from the Kingkiller Chronicles).

The Slow Regard of Silent Things was everything I wasn’t expecting.

Patrick Rothfuss’ new book focuses on Auri, which is one of the most enigmatic characters from The Kingkiller Chronicles. I was expecting to find some answers to some of the questions I had about this character, such as what was Auri’s name before Kvothe started calling her Auri, how did she end up living below the university, and how did she lose her mind?  None of these questions get answered, but that didn’t stop me from immensely enjoying this story.
