The writing by Patrick Rothfuss is as exquisite as ever. The number of beautiful metaphors, the authenticity of Auri's voice and the emotions that the story evokes are as strong as we'd expect - Fantasy FactionThe Slow Regard of Silent Things is a charming, if rather melancholic tale, that leaves the reader feeling rather sad that it has finished - SFF WorldIt is wonderfully written, the prose verging on poetic in places...There's a sense that Rothfuss has chosen every one of those words with great care and precision, using them to tell a story that's lyrical, heart-felt and unique - Starburst MagazineThis book is worth the excitement and frantic scrabbling of pages; it's worth waiting to get to know Auri that little bit better, to step further into her world and see how she survives. Anything Rothfuss-related is a must-read, whether it be an epic novel, a short story or a novella, and The Slow Regard of Silent Things is no exception. - Wondrous ReadsFor those who have read The Name of the Wind and The Wise Man's Fear, this is an absolute must read. - The Bookbagan incredibly rewarding read, for an avid reader it's like taking a reading holiday - the differences are a breath of fresh air. - SF BookI really loved this story and It made me fall in love with Auri even more....it really is a very special book and It is one I am going to revisit again and again. - Sleepless Musings
