Fantastic reading of a great sleeper novel IMHO. Wanted to feel some of that nostalgia from the movie, and this outshined in so many ways.

Absolutely incredible

Revisado: 05-09-22

Amazing world building and character development, I could not put it down. The performances were incredible, and made the story come alive. I can't wait to start the next one.

Excellent and prescient

I wonder what impact giving this book a 5-star rating will have on my social credit score? Oh wait, you addressed that in your last chapter, and I agree, "f*** that"! Well worth the read!

Excellent (and unexpedcted) end to the series

Revisado: 12-17-20

Sanderson carried the intrigue through the whole series and this installment was an amazing finale on the story.

What an immense and immersive fantasy

Revisado: 12-15-20

The world Rothfuss creates is massive, immensely intriguing, and immersive. I can't wait to continue the story in book two.

So flipping good

Revisado: 02-18-20

Dove into this right after finishing Steelheart, and having finished this, am heading straight to purchase Calamity. This has been another great installment in the series, and a satisfying progress for many of the characters.

Not as substantive as I remember from childhood

Revisado: 02-07-20

I think this felt more "epic" as a kid listening to TLTWATW growing up. As an adult it didn't seem to pace well, and there was no significant arc in the story. So much so, that as I'm writing this, I feel compelled to check and see if I actually purchased an abridged edition. Other than it not holding up well from my youth, the story is solid and the world building was done well, just wish it offered more than an improvised-bedtime-story-ish feel.

Crazy business!!!

Revisado: 02-07-20

This was my first Brandon Sanderson book so I wasn't sure what to expect, but OH MY GOODNESS was this crazy good. The pacing, plot and characters were top notch, the performance was incredible and the story drew me in from the start. I found myself sitting in the car or staying a few minutes after work to hear just a little bit more, could not put it down. Excellent listen and will be picking up the next in the series.

Crazy good

Well worth the listen. I saw the movie before I got the book, and am so glad I took the time listen, very funny and engaging throughout.

Some great insight, but overlong and disjointed

Revisado: 10-26-19

I read Yancey's "Disappointment with God" prior to this book, and was significantly more impressed. This book offers some great insights, and for me, encouragement in my prayer life; however, after reading I feel I know more about what "goes with" genuine prayer, but less so about what authentic prayer looks like. To be completely fair, maybe that is always a personal thing though, and doesn't lend itself to an instruction manual (as much as I wish it did).

The performance was good, (I've never heard the word "humble" pronounced with a silent "h" before) but other than the only detractor was what I assume a poor windscreen on the recording mic, as you can occasionally hear the performers recovery breath, and for a time was distracting, but didn't prove a significant hindrance to the material.
