His job description entails operating a tavern alone in the middle of a cursed forest and guarding the path to the legendary Wishing Well. On the rare occasion that a wish-seeker survives the Manglewood long enough to reach his doorstep, he sits them down by his fire with a drink of their choice, listens to their story, and immortalizes them in song. But one-hundred years is a long time to be alone, and Wren wants nothing more than to regain his memories.

In this episode the Fingers kick off their coverage of The Wise Man's Fear, the second book of The Kingkiller Chronicle, by Patrick Rothfuss.  In what is a bit of a catchup series of chapters, we see the silence of the Inn, the magical illusion Kote has laid upon the civilians of the town that even he can't overcome, and we reacquaint ourselves with the Eolian as Kvothe tries to make some money for tuition…the same old song and dance! We do have Devi After Dark available again at the end of the episode.  We cover this series spoiler-free in the main section, but Devi After Dark is our chance to dive into the wilder speculation which so many have already spent hours and days laying out in various locations.  We hope to bring you the best of our own theories and thoughts in the fandom as we move through the series.

We return to the Kingkiller Chronicles and Patrick Rothfuss' newest novella, The Narrow Road Between Desires, which Sam describes as "A Day in the Life of Bast." It's a slightly shorter episode for a slightly shorter book, but we theorize a lot about Fae magic, including Grammarie and Glammourie, and foreshadowing through Embrils. We also discuss The Lightning Tree, sexy fae tropes, Bast's deal-making skills, where this story falls in the Kingkiller timeline, time travel, the artwork, and, of course, we do mention some of the controversy surrounding this story. -- Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.fantasticbookspod.com⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠www.instagram.com/fantasticbookspod⁠ ⁠⁠(or follow @fantasticbookspod) Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠www.facebook.com/fantasticbookspod⁠⁠⁠ Shop: ⁠⁠⁠www.etsy.com/shop/FantasticBooksPod⁠⁠⁠ -- Published by Goldenrise Media. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fantasticbooks/message

Greeting's heathens and witches, Welcome to Pub Chat! These episodes are for us to have a more free-form way to discuss listener questions, shorter subjects, as well as magical happenings, musings, and of course, go off on tangents.In this week's Pub Chat we explore one of the magical systems in The KingKiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss, Sympathetic Magic.

The first chapter can make or break a reader's engagement with a story. We as writers must craft brilliant opening pages to hook those picky readers, so let's study the stories of others to see how they do it! I have been recommended Patrick Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind quite often over the years, but here I am, diving into this shorter fantasy work of his instead. Even Rothfuss recommends NOT reading this short work before his other books, but I have done so...and am glad to have done so, too. The first chapter quickly establishes our protagonist Bast, a known character from the other books. Being a complete newbie, I accepted that there could be unclear aspects of the world for me because I wasn't familiar with the world of The Kingkiller Chronicle. Yet the first chapter starts in a very intimate, quiet way: Bast is trying to sneak out of the inn before his master notices. The innkeeper catches him, though, and sets him up with a mysterious book and a small list of errands before asking about a stranger who stopped by the inn earlier. Bast pretends to not know much of the stranger and takes off for his errands. Doesn't sound like much, does it? And the stranger's name sounds like it is also something from the other books. But that does not leave me flustered in the least. Rothfuss has a beautiful sense of the ear in his language, describing the different sounds created when a novice tries to sneak away vs. an expert vs. the artist Bast is. The visual and aural details mixed with metaphor creates a flow of prose one can easily coast upon, happy to see where the current takes them. Sure, I may choose to follow Rothfuss' advice and NOT read The Narrow Road Between Desires before I read The Name of the Wind, but something tells me that if I stay with the current, Bast's tale will still take me to some pretty exciting, unique places in that fantastical realm. And what will you find in these first five pages? Let's find out! Cheers!

Matt and Scad celebrate their 150th episode with a doozy of a selection of chapters from The Name of the Wind.  Kvothe hears that the Chandrian have appeared only one day prior and a mere afternoon's ride away.  He drops everything, procures a loan for a horse and sets off to see evidence of this childhood faerie tale turned real life trauma.  When he arrives, Denna just happens to be the only survivor from the slaughter, and the two of them tour the scene of the crime together.  Also inside, we reminisce about our 150 episodes together and share some heartfelt and very touching listener feedback from the Khalasar. The Davos' Fingers podcast is spoiler free as we cover The Kingkiller Chronicle, so we will only cover that material up to and including the chapters discussed in this episode.  So listen in comfort knowing we will not spoil this book for first time readers!  But if you love the saucy speculation, join us for a special section at the end of the podcast called Devi After Dark, in which the spoilers will fly! Lastly, we'd love to hear from you.  Sometimes we share listener emails sent to weardavosfingers@gmail.com on the cast and we frequently remark about engaging twitter conversations through the @davosfingers account.  So come find us and play!  We can also be found on facebook and bluesky with the same name, and if you are interested in sending a few bones our way, check out patreon at www.patreon.com/davosfingers.

In Episode 148, Matt and Scad go walking and talking with Kvothe and Denna as the pair connect for hours after Kvothe skips out on work. It's also a bit of a catchup episode. Kvothe has all sorts of opportunity in front of him now that he has obtained his talent pipes and completed his training in the artificery, but what will he prioritize, and can he focus on getting a little bit ahead in life, or will he get distracted by the things he doesn't have.

Episode 147:  Caught By A Smile   The boys from Davos' Fingers get a nice easy break this episode to sit back and listen to a master at work.  This series of chapters is contained almost entirely within the happening music spot, The Eolian, where Kvothe attempts to “earn his pipes”.  A small trinket fashioned to look like silver pipes, they will earn him money and clout if he is successful.  But it is no easy task, as it takes a flawless and moving performance from a skilled artist, with most attempts not meeting the bar.  Kvothe drinks with his good friends, makes a few new ones, and is reunited with an old one from months ago all in this one magical night at the Eolian.

The Fingers find Kvothe at the end of his first term considerably richer than he was when he first arrived, with a true enemy in Ambrose, and a wild reputation that is MOSTLY true spreading like wildfire through the University. But as he approaches his second term and finds himself short of tuition money with no easy way to get more, he turns to scary options in order to stay a student, and even scarier options to bring music back into his life. There is also a woman waiting in the wings…or maybe she entered in this set of chapters?

Well the Fingers have certainly stumbled into a Tavern Tale, though Kvothe might disagree. This episode moves FAST. Kvothe gets to teach his first lesson at the University (you didn't misread that), gets punished and rewarded for it (you didn't misread that either), then gets his wounds tended to, but then opens a new wound himself by disobeying a serious rule of the University. If only he had figured out that 4-plated DOOR first!! So much happens to Kvothe so quickly, sometimes you just want to tell him to slow down, but here we are!   Matt and Scad have really hit their stride in their coverage of The Kingkiller Chronicle weaving pop culture and their personal lives in with some in-depth analysis of the text.

In Episode 144*, the Fingers follow Kvothe into Imre and further into the depths of the University.  Inside, we get a cultural education about the University, and we meet the Masters that control admissions.  Kvothe must work some Kvothian magic to be admitted, but once he is, we get to meet some new friends and some new enemies.  Kvothe is at the University at last; where he thinks he belongs, and that is something to celebrate.   We are just under 1/2 of the way through The Name of the Wind, the first book in The Kingkiller Chronicle, and we hope you come along for the ride with us while we all await The Winds of Winter!  It is a rich text by a fantastic author, and you should definitely give it a try!

The Fingers have had enough of Tarbean, and so has Kvothe.  His mind reawakend by a story heard in a bar, Kvothe finds the motivation he needs to scrape some money together, clean himself up and find his way out of Tarbean.  And he does it with his normal flair and creativity while encountering his share of heroes and villains along the way.  This episode covers chapters 26-32. We are just about 1/3 of the way through The Name of the Wind, the first book in The Kingkiller Chronicle and we hope you come along for the ride with us while we all await, The Winds of Winter! The Davos' Fingers podcast relishes being spoiler free.  So you can listen along as you read this series for the first time wthout being spoiled.  But for all those looking to peak ahead, we have Devi After Dark, a spoiler-filled segment at the end of our episodes. If you'd like to reach out to us and let us know how we're doing, or give us some feedback, or just want to vent about that one coworker that really sucks, drop us some raven mail at wearedavosfingers@gmail.com, @davosfingers on twitter, at davosfingers.com or you can find our page on Facebook. https://youtu.be/z-yItQGr4ZQ

The Fingers travel with Kvothe to Tarbean to get some new lute strings, and you faithful listeners are coming with us.  Kvothe's mind is a terrifying place these days, and he is coping via copious lute playing, becoming a master that can compose new works and play through broken strings.  But when his third string breaks he finds himself on the move to a place where he can get replacements, for the idea of existing with lute playing is ludicrous.  But the city he finds, Tarbean, is unwelcoming and hard. In a rollercoaster episode full of helpful heroes and dangerous demons, Pat allows us to feel like we are right there, huddled with Kvothe in his place where the three roofs meet. Our coverage of The Name of the Wind continues as we divert from ASOIAF for a time.  We hope you enjoy the Kingkiller Chronicle as much as we are! We have returned to a spoiler free format for The Name of the Wind, so you can listen to us without fear of spoiling your future reading if you are coming along at our own pace!  And as a result Devi After Dark is back for a segment that is filled with spoilers and looks at what is coming ahead!

Matt and Scad continue their coverage of The Kingkiller Chronicle, as Kote reluctantly contends with a guest who has figured out his identity, a guest that wants, nay demands, to tell Kvothe's story. After some fits and starts Kvothe dives in, and we learn about his early days with his family, his troupe. We also get details about Abenthy, Kvothe's first real teacher, who brings elements of magic, true magic and some a little less true, into Kvothe's world.   The Davos' Fingers podcast has branched out to cover the first work within The Kingkiller Chronicle:  The Name of the Wind!  We hope you enjoy this choice and come along with us!   We have returned to a spoiler free format for The Name of the Wind, so you can listen to us without fear of spoiling your future reading if you are coming along at our own pace!   If you'd like to reach out to us and let us know how we're doing, or give us some feedback, or just want to vent about that one coworker that really sucks, drop us some raven mail at wearedavosfingers@gmail.com, @davosfingers on twitter, at davosfingers.com or you can find our page on Facebook.   Also available on Youtube:  https://youtu.be/NtcOCGwRIto   Selection covered: Chapter 5 through Chapter 11 of THE NAME OF THE WIND.

In our first episode covering The Kingkiller Chronicle, Davos' Fingers is introduced to the mostly mild-mannered and seemingly regular Kote.  Then, of course, he becomes totally IRREGULAR and starts talking about demons and trying to hide his obviously prolific history from people.  Oh, yeah, then he befriends a stranger on the road…a Chronicler...before executing a bunch of spider monsters…so enjoy!.   The Davos' Fingers podcast has branched out to cover the first work within The Kingkiller Chronicle:  The Name of the Wind!  We hope you enjoy this choice and come along with us!   We have returned to a spoiler free format for The Name of the Wind, so you can listen to us without fear of spoiling your future reading if you are coming along at our own pace!

Rings, pagers, and cracked pots! Nick, Jordana, and Jeremy of “Page of the Wind” have escaped from the clutches of the insatiable Mister Mailbag and join RJ for a beautiful game in discussing the character Bredon, whom we meet in Severen during “The Wise Man's Fear.” Lots of Master Ash hypothesizing here, so buckle up for a ride on the Theory Train – though Jordana and Jeremy might try to convince us Bredon is just some dude. We also talk about Bredon's motive in educating Kvothe and playing Tak with him, possible casting for Bredon, and if he is connected to the Fae, the Lacklesses, or the Jakises. I also lament the lack of diversity in the Chronicle, and Nick reminds me about the KKC webcomic that Rothfuss wrote about. We further talk about Cinder's possible working relationship with Bredon, and those rumors about his pagan rituals. And what would a conversation about Master Ash be without Cthaeh and Denna being mentioned? Are we just reading too much into it?? Maybe! Bor Gullet will know the truth! Come on and enjoy the ride. Special thanks to Nick, Jordana, and Jeremy from Page of the Wind for joining me. You can find their excellent DAILY re-read of The Kingkiller Chronicle on your preferred podcatcher.

Who says a series has to be complete before you can discuss how good it is? Not us. The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss (2007) vs The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss (2011).

Roads!? Where we're going, we NEED roads! Because this week Andrew & Pete cover Tak, the abstract game of building roads across a board from the minds of author Patrick Rothfuss and designer James Ernest. You, too, will feel like you're in one of the Kingkiller Chronicle novels with this modern classic. And popular Tak personality Simmon joins us to talk all things Tak!   Simmon's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/Simmon_Tak   Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/twocanplaythatgamepodcast   All our links: https://linktr.ee/twocanplaythatgame

Join the cast as they talk about the elegant game of Tak. Originally dreamed up by Patrick Rothfuss for his Kingkiller Chronicles- it was picked up by James Ernest and brought to life. It features chess like strategy with a simple game design that is easy to learn. We think you'll love Tak in your collection!
