About this listen
Patrick Rothfuss narrates The Slow Regard of Silent Things, a companion novella to his best-selling Kingkiller Chronicle novels that shares an enchanting new perspective on the Four Corners realm.
Renowned as a bastion of knowledge, the University draws the brightest minds to unravel the mysteries of enlightened sciences, such as artificing and alchemy. Yet deep below its bustling halls lies a complex web of abandoned rooms and ancient passageways.
In the heart of this cavernous maze is a young woman named Auri, who calls this Underthing her home. Formerly a student at the University, Auri now spends her days tending to the world around her. She knows that some mysteries are better settled and safe. No longer fooled by the sharp rationality so trusted by those above her, Auri sees beyond the surface of things, into subtle dangers and hidden names.
At once joyous and haunting, The Slow Regard of Silent Things is a richly atmospheric and lyrical tale that features one of the most beloved characters from his acclaimed fantasy series.

Definitely unusual. Definitely loved it!
It’s one of the most creative pieces of literature I’ve come across this year. Yes, there isn’t a clear plot line or any dialogue between characters but it works. I recommend this book to those looking for a more intimate experience into the mind of a character. Beautifully written - I never realised I could bond with inanimate objects!

Different but very good
This is a very different book than Patricks other work, but it written in the voice of Auri. Patrick has himself said that this book isnt for everyone but I really enjoyed losing myself in Auris world and rituals. Patrick also narrates this and does a wonderful job.

5 Stars All Round
Love it love it love it! I'm a massive Rothfuss fan and hearing him read Auris story made me love it even more.
The way he writes, and reads, is mesmerizing. He is a true poet....if only he was a musician too 😉

very unusual but delightful
this is not for everyone as the author says. but it could be for you. this is more of a beautifully written poetic piece about a metaphorical pixie (though actually a broken person) drifting through 7 days in a purposeless and yet a purposeful way.

loved it
this story was wonderful and Strange. Patrick has captured something here that is very hard to articulate. if you like words and Strange bendings of language I would highly recommend this story!
