This is the story of the magically endowed young man who becomes the most infamous wizard his planet has ever seen, told in Kvothe's own words.
A compelling coming-of-age tale unmatched in modern literature is created by the intimate account of his early years spent as a traveling theater troupe member, his years as a nearly feral orphan in a city plagued by crime, his audacious but successful attempt to enroll in a fabled school of magic, and his life as a fugitive following the murder of a king.
A masterwork that immerses readers in the body and mind of a wizard, The Name of the Wind is a high-action novel written with a poet's touch.
