Sequel to the extraordinary The Name of the Wind, The Wise Man’s Fear is the second instalment of legendary fantasy series The Kingkiller Chronicle.

Picking up the tale of Kvothe Kingkiller once again, we follow him into exile, into political intrigue, courtship, adventure, love and magic … and further along the path that has turned Kvothe, the mightiest magician of his age, a legend in his own time, into Kote, the unassuming pub landlord.

Packed with as much magic, adventure and home-grown drama as The Name of the Wind, this is a sequel in every way the equal to its predecessor and a must-read for all fantasy fans. Readable, engaging and gripping, The Wise Man’s Fear is an expansive and magical fantasy that will take your breath away.
