en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 sep 2014 – vârsta de la 18 ani
Deep below the University, there is a dark place. Few people know of it: a broken web of ancient passageways and abandoned rooms. A young woman lives there, tucked among the sprawling tunnels of the Underthing, snug in the heart of this forgotten place.

Her name is Auri, and she is full of mysteries.

"The Slow Regard of Silent Things" is a brief, bittersweet glimpse of Auri s life, a small adventure all her own. At once joyous and haunting, this story offers a chance to see the world through Auri s eyes. And it gives the reader a chance to learn things that only Auri knows....

In this book, Patrick Rothfuss brings us into the world of one of "The Kingkiller Chronicle" s most enigmatic characters. Full of secrets and mysteries, "The Slow Regard of Silent Things" is the story of a broken girl trying to live in a broken world."

Adela Oltean a dat nota:

This book wasn't was I expected to be. I was hoping that maybe Kvothe would be mentioned or would appear in some scene but no. At all. This is all about Auri. Other than that I liked the story.


Lucian-Robert Negut a dat nota:

E adevarat; s-ar putea sa nu vrei sa cumperi aceasta carte. Este prea scurta dar pretul nu reflecta asta, ilustratiile si uneori chiar stilul in care e scrisa o fac sa para o poveste pentru copii desi nu e deloc, si cu siguranta nu face lucrurile pe care ar trebui sa le faca o poveste. Nu prezinta o serie de evenimente extraordinare, nu include de fapt actiune propriu-zisa si nu are nici macar un grup de personaje. In schimb, prezinta cateva zile din viata banala, de zi cu zi a unui singur personaj, aceasta fiind complet singura. Un personaj neobisnuit, care-si petrece majoritatea timpului singura cu propriii demoni si propria minte. Aceasta fiind, cu siguranta, ei bine, diferita. S-ar putea spune ca aceasta este o carte despre Auri si The Underthing, dar asta n-ar fi prea corect. Mai aproape de adevar, s-ar putea spune ca aceasta nu este o carte pentru cei care sunt sau prefera sa se considere "normali" in orice fel. In principal, insa, trebuie sa se spuna ca aceasta carte este despre, si pentru, aceia dintre noi care suntem diferiti. Este pentru aceia dintre noi care suntem ciudati si daramati, zdrobiti si singuri, dar constienti de asta si inca dand atentie, inca implicati, cautand sa intelegem si sa fim intelesi, si sperand cu disperare sa gasim pe cineva ai carui demoni sa se joace frumos cu ai nostri. Nu sunteti singuri.

Recenzii

Praise for Patrick Rothfuss:
"As seamless and lyrical as a song... This breathtakingly epic story is heartrending in its intimacy and masterful in its narrative essence."
--"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
"Reminiscent in scope of Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series and similar in feel to the narrative tour de force of "The Arabian Nights," this masterpiece of storytelling will appeal to lovers of fantasy on a grand scale."
--"Library Journal" (starred review)
"It is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing...with true music in the words.... Wherever Pat Rothfuss goes...he'll carry us with him as a good singer carries us through a song."
--Ursula K LeGuin
""The Wise Man's Fear" is a "beautiful" book to read. Masterful prose, a sense of cohesion to the storytelling, a wonderful sense of pacing.... There is beauty to Pat's writing that defies description."
--Brandon Sanderson
"Patrick Rothfuss has real talent, and his tale of Kvothe is deep and intricate and wondrous."
--Terry Brooks
"[Rothfuss is] the great new fantasy writer we've been waiting for, and this is an astonishing book."
--Orson Scott Card
"As with all very best books in our field, it's not the fantasy trappings (as wonderful as they are) that make this novel so good, but what the author has to say about true, common things, about ambition and failure, art, love, and loss."
--Tad Williams
"This is an extremely immersive story set in a flawlessly constructed world and told extremely well."
--Jo Walton, Tor.com
"It is the best book I have read it years, fantasy or otherwise.... The world is so deep, the stakes are so high, the characters so real, the mysteries so magical, the magic so mysterious, the plot so twisty...every day you haven't read it is a day in your life that could be better."
--Hank Green
"This fast-moving, vivid, and unpretentious debut roots its coming-of-age fantasy in convincing mythology."
--"Entertainment Weekly"--eloquence quotes
