Discover book two of Patrick Rothfuss’ #1 New York Times-bestselling epic fantasy series, The Kingkiller Chronicle. “I just love the world of Patrick Rothfuss.” —Lin-Manuel Miranda 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.” My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me. So begins a tale told from his own point of view—a story unequaled in fantasy literature. Now in The Wise Man’s Fear, Day Two of The Kingkiller Chronicle, 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 uncovers 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. 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.

Book Description
On the back side of the universe beyond the heavenly bodies exists a world where darkness knows no light. Time has no meaning, yet this Dark World remains due to its being shrouded in evil personified. The evil lord of this realm is Vacak, who has given birth to his three children, Uki, Deitra, and Demondog. Vacak wants immortality and has an impending coronation forthcoming, but there is one obstacle in his way, and that is his daughter Deitra. When she was a young woman, her brother Uki made a decision, either to betray his father by not telling him he had taken her to Earth or to leave her there to be bitten by Vacak, therefore losing her power to prevent Vacak from becoming immortal. He decided to take her to Earth for what he hoped would be a safe haven. Vacak suspected treachery of his oldest son but had no proof. Instead, he commanded that Uki travel to Earth by way of the cosmos to see if Deitra was living there. He had to find her and turn her into a vampire before his coronation because she was the only one to prevent his transformation due to the fact she was still pure.
