From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. The originality of Rothfuss's outstanding debut fantasy, the first of a trilogy, lies less in its unnamed imaginary world than in its precise execution. Kvothe ("pronounced nearly the same as 'Quothe' "), the hero and villain of a thousand tales who's presumed dead, lives as the simple proprietor of the Waystone Inn under an assumed name. Prompted by a biographer called Chronicler who realizes his true identity, Kvothe starts to tell his life story. From his upbringing as an actor in his family's traveling troupe of magicians, jugglers and jesters, the Edema Ruh, to feral child on the streets of the vast port city of Tarbean, then his education at "the University," Kvothe is driven by twin imperatives—his desire to learn the higher magic of naming and his need to discover as much as possible about the Chandrian, the demons of legend who murdered his family. As absorbing on a second reading as it is on the first, this is the type of assured, rich first novel most writers can only dream of producing. The fantasy world has a new star. (Apr.)

From Booklist
Travelers to the village where Kote runs an inn are rare, but those who've shown up lately have brought bad news. A sort of demonic spider attacks a local, and then Kote rescues a wandering scholar, bringing him to the inn to recover. The man recognizes Kote as the legendary hero Kvothe and begs him to reveal the reality behind all the legends. Most of the novel is Kvothe's autobiography, that of a young genius growing up in a troupe of elite traveling players, tutored by an old arcanist, until marauders (mere marauders?) destroyed it, after which he made his way to the great university and petitioned for admission. Rothfuss skillfully handles the change of Kvothe's voice from child to youth to student, and the voice of the mature Kvothe in retrospective interjections. Hints of further adventures are strewn about in this series opener, whose one problem lies in its naturally slow, unfortunately sometimes draggy pacing. Not exactly a page-turner, but fanciers of long, intricate plots will be pleased. Frieda Murray

评分##谢谢@corbelle 推荐~ 用kindle app在手机上看的。前半部分节奏颇慢，一度搁下了好几个月，后来几乎每天都看，到尾声就有点手不释卷了。好像是作者的第一部作品？但是老练而精美。我喜欢奇幻 =v=

评分##善战者无赫赫之功，看似平淡的行文，述说了一个英雄的平生。更何况结尾平添了些许情理之中的转折。 只是，与女主的关系莫名让人揪心，千年备胎做得太辛苦。然人生在世，被欲望与现实纠缠，往往不能随心所欲事事称己。 另外，此书实在是断断续续地在多看里读了好几个月啊。
评分##(终于看完了= =) 虽然才看了开头，但是感觉很对胃口啊而且脑补空间好大被戳了......往事成谜的年轻导师（当然看上去....)+身份不明的英俊学徒.....TAT
评分##lovely stories，不过实在也是各种中二各种苏，男主角周身闪耀着兆瓦强光，连头发都是红的。这书无法谈世界观和立意之类的，也又不像儿童读物，我觉着纳尼亚、哈利波特肯定都比这货强，虽然另外两个我肯定读不下去。开始看这书全仰仗内条推荐微博，王子殿下那绝对是真爱啊噗。
评分##The time spent reading a novel is basically time spent with the characters. And what characters The Name Of The Wind contains. Controlling. Passive aggressive. Aloof. Manipulative. But the story was gripping and lovely.
评分这书开头装了好大一个比，尤其是有声书直接把我听醉过去，当时天真的以为自己又遇到了一本奇幻巨作…后面只能用“不至于让人扫兴”来形容，但横向比较还算优秀（比如绝对超越哈利波特），给五星。
