The Name of the Wind (10th Anniversary Deluxe Edition)

A wonderful illustrated and updated edition, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Spanish publication of the highly acclaimed novel that has established Patrick Rothfuss as a publishing phenomenon.

Since its publication in Spanish a decade ago, The Name of the Wind has enchanted millions of readers worldwide. This commemorative and updated edition offers us the opportunity to delve into Patrick Rothfuss's unparalleled universe, with unreleased material that includes: notes from the author, the editor, and the renowned writer Jo Walton, twenty-one magnificent full-page illustrations by Dan Dos Santos, maps by Nate Taylor, and illustrated appendices on the history, currencies, and calendar of the four corners of civilization.

"I traveled, loved, lost, trusted, and was betrayed."

In an inn in no man's land, a man prepares to tell, for the first time, the authentic story of his life. A story that only he knows and that has been diluted by rumors, conjectures, and tavern tales that have turned him into a legendary figure whom everyone had already presumed dead: Kvothe... musician, beggar, thief, student, wizard, hero, and assassin.

Atypical, profound, and sincere, The Name of the Wind is a novel of adventures, of stories within stories, of mystery, of friendship, of love, of magic, and of overcoming obstacles, written with the hand of a poet who has dazzled—with its originality and the mastery with which it is narrated—everyone who has read it.

Critics have said...
"A celebration of the pleasure of storytelling."
El País

"Unusual and precious. Rating: excellent."
Qué Leer

"A book for those who know the magical power of words."
Ricard Ruiz Garzón, El Periódico de Catalunya

"Wherever Pat Rothfuss goes with the splendid story that begins with The Name of the Wind, he will lead us by the hand as a good musician leads us through a song."
Ursula K. Le Guin

"An amazing book."
Orson Scott Card

"This Rothfuss is damn good."
George R. R. Martin

"Patrick Rothfuss has reminded me of Ursula K. Le Guin, George R.R. Martin, and J.R.R. Tolkien, but at no point did I feel he was imitating them. Without a doubt, The Name of the Wind will become a classic."
The Times

"When you start reading, prepare to lose sight of the real world and immerse yourself in an immensely original and hypnotic story of magic, love, and adventure."
The Barnes & Noble Review

"The Name of the Wind is one of the best stories told in the last decade. Keep it on the shelf next to The Lord of the Rings."
The A.V. Club

"As absorbing on a second reading as it is on the first, this is the kind of debut novel most authors can only dream of writing. The universe of fantasy literature has a new star."
