Hey, was at Wal-Mart yesterday (YES, I know it's EVIL, but Seeker's having budget troubles this month) and on a whim picked up The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss.
I'm not a huge fantasy fan. I've read a lot of it through my Ex. She has them all. Of course I love the Lord of the Rings and Tad Williams' series. I kept hearing such good things about this book that when I saw it, I picked it up. I know, blew my budget and negated the entire reason for going to Wal-Mart. (Hey, they don't still censor their books do they?) *Worried*
I started it late last night and only 50 pages in. I stayed up way too late watching Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals, awesome game IMHO.
I'll post a review when I'm finished.
