Kingkiller Chronicles Series Book 2
Day Two: The Wise Man's Fear.
"There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night
with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man."
An escalating rivalry with a powerful member of the nobility forces
Kvothe to leave the University and seek his fortune abroad. Adrift,
penniless, and alone, he travels to Vintas, where he quickly becomes
entangled in the politics of courtly society. While attempting to curry
favor with a powerful noble, Kvothe discovers an assassination attempt,
comes into conflict with a rival arcanist, and leads a group of mercenaries
into the wild, in an attempt to solve the mystery of who (or what) is
waylaying travelers on the King's road.
All the while, Kvothe searches for answers, attempting to uncover the
truth about the mysterious Amyr, the Chandrian, and the death of his
parents. Along the way, Kvothe is put on trial by the legendary Adem
mercenaries, forced to reclaim the honor of the Edema Ruh, and travels
into the Fae realm. There he meets Felurian, the faerie woman no man
can resist, and who no man has ever survived. Under her tutelage, Kvothe
learns much about true magic and the ways of women.
In The Wise Man's Fear Kvothe takes his first steps on the path of the
hero and learns how difficult life can be when a man becomes a legend
in his own time.
