Der Weg der Wünsche

Patrick Rothfuss finally returns to the world of the Kingkiller Chronicle after nine years. The breathtaking and significantly expanded new edition of the novella "The Lightning Tree," which was previously only published in an anthology. Bast loves making deals. "You give me, I give you" – this is as familiar to him as breathing; watching him negotiate is like watching an artist paint. But even a master can slip up with the brush. When Bast accepts a gift without giving one in return, his entire world begins to unravel. Follow the most charming Fae of the Kingkiller Chronicle for an entire day, from dawn until after midnight, as he plots and prowls, dancing into trouble – and extricating himself from it with almost eerie grace. The Way of Wishes is Bast's story. He walks along the ancient paths of creation and destruction, following his heart even when his mind advises otherwise. For what good is all caution if it keeps him safe from dangers but also from the joys of life?.
