The Name of the Wind (KingKiller Chronicles) (English, audio cd, Patrick Rothfuss, Nick Podehl)

My name is Kvothe
I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep.
You may have heard of me.
So begins a tale unequaled in fantasy literature a \" the story of a hero told in his own voice. It is a tale of sorrow, a tale of survival, a tale of one mana (TM)s search for meaning in his universe, and how that search, and the indomitable will that drove it, gave birth to a legend.
a oeIt is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing...with true music in the words....Wherever Pat Rothfuss goes...hea (TM)ll carry us with him as a good singer carries us through a song.a a \" Ursula K. Le Guin, bestselling author and winner of the National Book Award
