After seeing her world through Auri’s inquisitive eyes, I felt like I began to understand her. While reading this book, I was constantly amazed by Rothfuss’s ability to write so clearly from the perspective of a broken mind and make the pieces make sense. She is a curious character and one I’m very happy Rothfuss explored in this novella. When with Auri, everything must be just so and one must observe proper manners or she will scurry away and disappear. As Kvothe learns more about Auri, it becomes clear that she is a bit disturbed, off-kilter, though intelligent. When protagonist Kvothe first meets Auri in the first volume, she is timid and exhibits an almost feral behavior.
What is foxin from the slow regard of silent things series#
Auri is introduced in the first book of the series and is for me one of the most interesting characters in Rothfuss’s world. Now Rothfuss gives us The Slow Regard of Silent Things, a novella centered on the enigmatic Auri, the young woman who lives in the Underthing, a network of passages and rooms and sewers beneath The University. The second book in the series, The Wise Man’s Fear, The Kingkiller Chronicles: Day Two disappointed me, though it is still a good story. I adored his first novel, briefly titled The Name of the Wind, The Kingkiller Chronicles: Day One. Having read his blog, followed him on various social networks, participated in his charity Worldbuilders, and watched several video interviews and his brief YouTube panel discussion program The Story Board, I can tell the man is just an all-around good man. I am an unabashed fan of Patrick Rothfuss.
