Just finished the Wise Man's Fear, since this topic was still up I figured it would be best to talk about it here.

This should probably be longer than a trilogy, I mean, it's 2 books in and he covered roughly 6 years of his life story. He has got at least another decade and a half between the time he ended at the 2nd night and the present day, probably more, either that book is going to be huge or he'll have to gloss over a lot of his adult life to finish up in 3 books.

I just hope Denna shows up at the Waystone Inn at the end of the last book.

It's no wonder Rothfuss is taking so long for the 3rd book

Odds are likely some of the stuff will get glossed over that has huge impact like Kvothe's pirating incident where there's a shipwreck and mutiny I believe? It was at the start of one of the chapters. That in of itself could be a whole chapter or several if Rothfuss wanted to expand on it, but it was relegated to a couple of sentences. I STILL remember it years later because to me it felt significant however.

As for book 3 coming out, no idea, when it does I'll re read it.

I definitely do recommend reading that Bast one off for sure, and if you can handle the differing style Slow Regard of Silent Things. Some of the fans hate the style it's written in, but I enjoyed it just because more lore.
