I hate all the criticism Rothfuss gets. He's had a version done for ages, but in his words it was “a book you would not have liked, because it was just discernibly bad.” He's spoken at length about the challenges and I find it hard to hold it against him. I'm sad Doors of Stone isn't out, sure, but he doesn't deserve any criticism.
- seventhtiger 7y agoHe painted himself in a corner very clearly. The series is about the legendary chronicles of a kingkiller, but 2/3rds of the way through, the story was about a street urchin, then a magical academy. I thoroughly enjoyed the stories, but I feel closer to Harry Potter than the kingkiller. If he tries to get there in one book, I believe he will stumble. The tone and scale of the story so far has been much too small for a trilogy that promised an epic finish.
