Searching for an epic quest while you wait? These books like The Name of the Wind will sweep you away just like Kvothe’s adventures. Alas, no release date has yet been announced. The author is currently at work on the final book in the trilogy, tentatively titled The Doors of Stone. He’s also released a set of novella-length companion tales. To date, Rothfuss has published two full-length Kingkiller Chronicle books, 2007’s The Name of the Wind and 2011’s The Wise Man's Fear. And with Lin-Manuel Miranda executive producing a prequel TV series adaptation of The Kingkiller Chronicle that's currently being shopped to networks, it’s clear the future looks bright for Rothfuss’s high fantasy saga. His ever-growing fanbase includes genre titans like Robin Hobb, Terry Brooks, and George R.R. Rothfuss interweaves ancient magic and world-building lore with character-driven drama in The Name of the Wind-an intentional move, as the author has stated that his stories "live on their characters" rather than scenes of sword-clashing action. It tells the tale of Kvothe, a roughish magician and musician living under an assumed name who unspools his legendary life story of song and adventure and his search for the sinister entities that killed his family many years ago. Raven’s Shadow has been on many 2012 best of. The award-winning narrative is the first in the author’s bestselling Kingkiller Chronicle trilogy. Joseph Muszynski has produced a terrific pilot script that does justice to the story and fully captures the spirit of the books, said Ryan. Patrick Rothfuss’s The Name of the Wind transfixed the Four Corners of the fantasy world when it was released in 2007.
