I'm so so sorry. Name of the Wind is brilliant. The sequel is decent. But I've given up hope for the series to ever be completed.
Whatcha sorry about? Does the book end on a cliffhanger or something? Or can I get away with just reading the first one?
Well, I adored Name of the Wind. It's a great read. But like I said, I've given up hope for that series. I don't believe that the author will ever finish it. I really hate unfinished stories, especially one like this that feels only half-written (yes, half, with 2 out of 3 books written!). So I'm sorry for your sake, that you've gotten sucked into an unfinished tale.
Ah, that’s a bummer. I’m definitely enjoying it this far but I’m invested in enough other series/stories that I’ll probably feel ok putting this one on the shelf. Similar to GoT, I enjoyed what I read (all that’s been released in the main series) and have since moved on. If another book does come out, awesome! If not, oh well.
