The Kingkiller Chronicle

Book • 2007
The Kingkiller Chronicle is a fantasy trilogy set in the fictional world of Temerant.

The series centers on Kvothe, a legendary figure known as the 'Kingkiller,' who recounts his life story to a scribe over three days.

The narrative is framed by Kvothe's present-day life as an innkeeper under an assumed name and delves into his past as a wandering performer, musician, and arcanist.

The series explores themes of magic, mythology, and personal growth, with a detailed magic system and a richly developed world.

The first two books, 'The Name of the Wind' and 'The Wise Man's Fear,' have been released, while the third book, 'The Doors of Stone,' is still forthcoming.
