The Kingkiller Chronicle. The Kingkiller Chronicle is a fantasy trilogy by Patrick Rothfuss (b. 1973), telling the autobiography of Kvothe,[1] an adventurer and famous musician. The plot is divided into two different action threads: the present, where Kvothe tells the story of his life to Devan Lochees (known as Chronicler) in the main room of his inn, and Kvothe's past, the story in question, which comprises the majority of the books.

The present-day interludes are in the third person from the perspective of multiple characters, while the story of Kvothe's life is told entirely in the first person from his own perspective. The series also contains many metafictional stories-within-stories from varying perspectives, most of which are recounted by Kvothe, having been heard from other characters in his past. Books in the series[edit] As of August 2013, the first two books have been released. A release date for the third book hasn't been announced, but a release in 2016 has been cited as most probable.

I just signed the following petition addressed to: 18 Clubs all over Europe who give a platform to Hate-Singers.

Stop supporting hate! A number of clubs in Europe will offer a stage in March and April to an "artist" who calls for the murder of LGBT people.

A number of clubs in Europe will offer a stage in March and April to an "artist" who calls for the murder of LGBT people. Here are some of Sizzla's lyrics (translations in parentheses): In "Pump Up" he sings: Step up inna front line (Step up to the front line) fire fi di man dem weh go ride man behind (burn the men who have sex with men from behind) Shot battybwoy, my big gun boom (Shoot queers, my big gun goes boom) In "Boom Boom" he sings: Boom boom!

These songs are all on YouTube. Sincerely, Search Results - rothfuss reread. Rothfuss Reread: The Name of the Wind, Part 2: You Went Looking For a Myth and Found a Man. Rothfuss Reread: The Name of the Wind, Part 2: You Went Looking For a Myth and Found a Man This is the second post in my intensive close re-reading of The Name of the Wind. It covers chapters 6-10 of the book. And it is full of spoilers, not only for The Name of the Wind but for The Wise Man’s Fear, too.

Do not go beyond this point unless you have read both books or are for some unimaginable reason obsessed with the details of them without having read them. Abbreviations NW = The Name of the Wind. Chapter Six is called “The Price of Remembering.” What K does know is that Lochees wrote The Mating Habits of the Common Draccus.

K asks if he has come to disprove Kvothe’s existence, as he did for dragons. When Kote offers Chronicler the comforts of the inn, this is the first time (or the first time I’ve noticed) that dialogue becomes verse. K says he is not what he was, and when asked what he was says “Kvothe.” Then Chronicler tries to get him to agree to tell his story. Then he gets diverted: Book 1, Chapter 1 - The Boy Who Lived, Number Four, Privet Drive.
