The reader, his name escapes me, does a good job and his performance is why I continue to listen. Rothfuss has skill as a wordsmith, for example the bit about the "silence of a man waiting to die" is good. There is also a bit of meta-textual cleverness in that Kvothe does not like talking about...

It is too easy for Kvothe, it is too one sided. It is too merry a tale and the rewards are unearned. There is no real villain of the tale.

Just imagine all the penises, sex and cursing a D&D series could provide!

Can anyone recommend similar shows?

No love for these shows?

By pure coincidence, from a malevolent universe, that is the same year Winds of Winter will be published.
