Amazing deep dive! Makes me wanna go on another reread! P.S. I've seen so many ads of this game that I finally decided to install it... And it didn't give me the starter pack, but it's still a fun game so no complaints there.
@@shivanshsingh784 Thanks, glad you enjoyed! Oh really?? That's weird! I used my own link to play it, and I got the starter pack and everything (I had to claim it in the treasure box in the top right. or maybe you have to click on referral program to get them?) I've actually been playing it a bit and starter my own clan, so when you're able to join clans feel free to search Captured in Words and it should pop up! 👍
Have I read the KingKiller chronicles dozens of times? Yes. Will I still devour any content about it? You bet! Especially a deep dive. I haven't read the books in a year or two now so this will have to satiate me until I read them again. You can see all the work and passion that's gone into this video, can't wait for part 2!
I'm excited to post part 2, it will likely be just as long as this one! I'm starting a reread of The wise Man's Fear soon, since it's been awhile since I've read that one and need to prepare for summary videos on that too
I reread the books about twice a year and brush up on the lore and fan theories. This excellent channel and content helps to keep me hungry for the next book
@@timandjessica4204 i am listening to them again for the 10th plus time and not only do i still love the story but im still picking up on little things that i missed before
I don't know why I listen to both books and at the end of the 2nd book I was like is this it all the hype and this is legit it? The story is so one dimential it stupid he will do anything to look like a fool infront of Dana otherwise he is super brilliant honest will walk off a roof just to do so. The story is average at best I was late to this series but reading the raving reviews once I got to the end it was like I don't get it
I think the reason Loren gets so angry about the candle is not because of the books but because the four plate door needs a candle, key and coin to preform the magic that opens it!
Ahhh I just noticed I forgot to put in a quote I recorded from the Chandrian encounter. Haliax says: ""Who keeps you safe from the Amyr? The singers? The Sithe? From all that would harm you in the world?" Which is an important quote as it gives us insight into who the Chandrian fear
He used 'harm' not "kill or destroy". I think that Kvothe (at that time) was zero on the threat scale. Hence his escape from his first encounter. I think 'post training' say #ChasingTheWind he is saving it up for the devasting blow. Its part of his lack of magic in the WayStone Inn...😎
Fortunately for you, there is evidence that Auri is the princess he rescues from sleeping barrow kings rather than the angel he kills, which I believe will involve Dena in some way.
Grabbed snacks, got cozy, and despite having read the Name of the Wind four times, I am still gonna fangirl and enjoy this video. Congratd on creating it!
This video is incredible! The production value is insane. I imagine even just writing the script must have taken a long time let alone all the editing. Man, one day your channel is going to break out and these videos will get a flood of views. Even if it takes you time to get these out (which is completely understandable) this type of content is so good and it's worth it.
Thanks so much Luke! It definitely took a long time! It was actually writing the script that was the longest part, as I basically went through the book chapter by chapter 😅 I wanted to make this video for so long, it sort of became a passion project and I'm excited to post part 2. Videos like these are my favorite to make :)
Thanks dude! I've been wanting to make this video for years, and honestly I let myself get too intimidated to even start working on it for the longest time. But recently I just decided I should stop being scared and just do it 😂 it took A LOT of time, but it feels good to finally have the summary finished (well part 1 anyway)
Masterpiece of a recap! I always tell friends these books only get better the more times you read them. One detail I never noticed before was the similarity between Kvothe’s near-death vision and the description of the angels. I would almost say some of the details and connections could be a stretch, but Patrick Rothfuss * never * puts anything in his writing without meticulous intent.
Thanks Kiera! They definitely get better with each reread, there's still little details I pick up on each time I read it which is one reason why I love Pat's writing. There's not many authors I know of that have the same amount of detail and beautiful writing that Rothfuss has in the Kingkiller Chronicle.
I believe Lady Lackless chose the name Laurian because Arliden called her "my Felurian" so she adapted that to Laurian. This is my theory, idk if others have thought of it before.
possibly something with iron? Fe being iron. Maybe Laurian means beauty? And Felurian is something like "Beatiful Fae", the Fae seem tied to iron for some reason. it burns them
I have just finished reading this book again and I've got to admit, it's freaking awesome this second go around. So many hidden things and I'm starting to like Kvothe, which I thought wasn't possible. I have been waiting for this video since you announced it on the discord. Thank you for the amazing work!
That's one of the beauties of this series, re-reading it reveals so much! I've read it so many times now, but still pick up on new small details I never really noticed! This video was a lot of work, but it was satisfying to finally go chapter by chapter and point out a lot of those details. Hope you enjoy! 😀
Dude this is a perfect deep dive to this book! Not only it brought me nostalgia it made me want to reread it again! Keep the great work Jake love, your videos! Hope the best for you. And may the king killer chronicles community never die!
Love this, really smart idea for a series, as these videos will effectively become the cornerstone and starting point for all your other, more nuanced KKC content.
My thoughts exactly! These summaries will point out a lot of the small details and briefly mention some theories as I summarize the books, and then my other theory/lore videos will be more focused on bringing all the clues together for a specific topic
THANKYOU for this!! Rothfuss has jam packed SO much into these two books that it doesn't matter how many times I read it or listen to it on audible, I feel like I need a wall of charts to explain how everything links together.
@@CapturedInWords Your work is very much appreciated. Sincerely, dude. Your Kingkiller videos truly help me escape to a better place. Watching them while reading these books made for one of my best book-reading experiences ever-and during some of the darkest times ever. So thank you. 🔥

Omg jay thanks for this video, I love it! I’m going to watch it soo many times! I can’t think of how much work this was, I hope it’ll give you hundreds of thousands clicks!
I hope so! It took SO long to write/film/edit but I'm happy to finally have it finished (well part 1 anyway)! And the response from everyone has made me really happy :) This was sort of a passion project, and it was very satisfying to finally summaries all the important details of this book. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this!! I love these books but there’s so much detail that you really help with. I LOVE your theory videos too and every time I persuade someone to read KKC I point them your way. Thanks!!
If it wasn't for your videos, the wait for the 3rd book would be unbearable. Thank you for making all of this amazing content! You leave no stone unturned
Thank you for reminding me of why I liked this book when I first read it about 10 years ago. I'm really looking forward to book 3 so I could reread the whole series, but meanwhile your video is the next best thing. Looking forward to part 2. And it was a really beatiful video, as usual!
That was absolutely amazing. I was pretty captured by your editing and all the art. This will for sure be a video I come back to to freshen myself up for the eventual day the doors of stone come out!
I'm glad I can help reveal some clues and hidden details! Rothfuss really is a intricate writer, so there's still some things people point out to me that I didn't notice too. That's one of the amazing things about this series!
I’ve just finished my fourth re-read ! Talk about perfect timing. You are by far the best King Killer Chronicle chronicler on TH-cam. Without imposing, I think we wouldn’t mind a few videos about The Stormlight Archive books. Character analysis, Parchendi Lore, or Roshar history. Anything to keep the waiting tender. With a huge gratitude for your work ! ❤️👌
I haven't read the book yet, but want to support the channel, so I'll watch with the volume off! And then come back in a month or two to see everything I missed during my first reading!
@@CapturedInWords I may have to move Name of the Wind up my TBR so I can actually watch the video! Although, you're editing is so good that this was still pretty entertaining without sound!
Same I believe I've read them two or three times now and I'm definitely going to read them again right before the third book is finally released. I assume you've also read the slow regard of silent things? That short novel about Auri was so damn good!
Thanks so much Petrik! 😀I've been meaning to make this video for a long time, so it feels good to finally post part 1. I spent way too much time on the writing/editing 😂
@@CapturedInWords The Kingkiller Chronicle deserve only the finest quality, and you delivered. This makes me excited to reread it again at the end of this year! Woohoo! 😃
just finished oh my god incredible the way he writes conversation and observes the little details of how people act without bogging down the prose is an absolute pleasure incredible fantasy now onto the next!!
Im planning on finally reading this book in 2022, but since im caught up in many series i was afraid to start another one since i probably wont be able to read book 2 right away. THis video saved me tho, thank you so much for these Jay! Your WoK summary helped a TON since i read WoR a year after WoK, and it is my favorite video on all of booktube.
I haven't watched the video yet, but I'd recommend reading the books. I just did about my 6th reread (audio this time) and it is still great. If you like audiobooks I recommend the nick podehl version
@@JohnDoe-xf9ly nothing atm. I've read asoiaf multiple times waiting on the next book for that. I have trouble finding a series I like. I've read the first wheel of time book but couldn't get into the series. I've also read the first mistborn book bir couldn't get into that either. I'm looking for another series to get into but haven't found any that hold my attention yet. I'm all for suggestions. Edit, I just realized you weren't asking me, but I'm still open to suggestions lol
Incredible production value, thank you for this! Even though I just finished my fifth reread there were a lot of things you showed me here that I didn't quite notice.
Awesome!! I'm glad I can help point out some things you didn't notice before! That's one thing I love about this series, with every reread there's always some new detail to pick up on
Fantastic video! the lore in name of the wind is my favourite thing about the series! It amazes me how dense Patrick rothfuss has made it. Your video has given me an itch to re read it 👍
thank you for the amazing content. the love you have for the king killer chronicle and fantasy literature can be seen to your work.. purely magnificent.
You are the man for this summary I wanted to dive back in to the series and reread it for the 4th time but wanted to start with WMF and this has allowed it thanks.
The mention of the four plate door having "No hinges or handle" sounds, rhythmically, similar to Taborlin having "No key or candle." Now, there may not be anything to this, but I have heard Rothfuss say that he likes, and works hard to have his prose read rhythmically like this. He's talked about a lot of editing time spent for this particular purpose. Is it possible this is a small hint as to what is behind the four plate door? maybe to do with Taborlin?
Man your editing is amazing. I already knew it was amazing but man the editing in this videos is just on a whole different level. I can't wait into part two.
Thank you so much for all these videos. Somehow i feel like there is no need for a third book, as we could puzzle together the whole picture from the 2 first books. 😂
Good job on these in depth rothfuss. He's the only living fantasy author I think worthy of signed first editions. Can't wait to collect Doors of Stone. (Hey Pat!)
Loving this! I've never read the actual book, I've only listened to the audio book twice. Lots of the details of the writing style can be missed when it's not written I never noticed that scarpi knew his name but he never told him his name
I definitively should read the books again although I may still miss some details due the traduction, here I noticed a couple of extra things, thanks for this new project
This video could not have come at a better time! I dropped this book after 200 pages for a few months, picked it back up yesterday and was in desperate need of refreshing my memory on the tales that Trapis and Scarpi tell in Tarbean!!! Couldn't remember any of it
@@CapturedInWords it really did man! Thanks a lot, amazing content. Now that I've reached the university sections I am super into the story. It has really picked up! I am getting through it very quickly hahaha will make sure to watch part 2 when you release it and I've finished it 😁
Would you be willing to cover more outlandish theories? I have dozens of those and would get a kick out of seeing the best of them reach youtube in this format.
Actually I've been meaning to make a 'Crackpot Theories' episode where I go over several really out there ones! If you have any you'd like to share feel free to let me know!
Thank you so much for this man, would love to re-read it one day but good to have this has a resource and to hear all your insight of multiple re reads!
Was really cool to watch this video and be reminded of an awesome story like this one! I don’t think I’ve read this book since maybe 2018 or so. Can’t wait for what is to come
Great video. I loved the "in depth summary" you did for The Way Of Kings also. Im sure they take a long time to knock out, but they're great. Keep them up with all your favorites.
Yeah they're definitely the videos that take the most amount of time, though it's mostly writing the script that is the longest part. But I'll for sure be making many more of these! 😃
Oooh! I paused this to comment! I'm super excited to hear this, because I have read, (welllll, actually listened to) the books over and over. I can't ever get tired of them, because there's little things here and there that I didn't notice before, each time!
Do you give lessons sir? I am both the ancient gamer combined with the new age youtube personality! All help is greatly appreciated in this quarter given. #GoldNoblesinReturn
@@patrickolsen8692 Thanks for watching the video! 😀 I don't really give any lessons though I'm thinking of creating a video editing course on Skillshare in the future! I'll also make a video on my channel some time soon about how I edit my videos
@@bookswine1498 well i was reading it slowly because i was focused on finishing other things. last year a read 3 books and read each one within a month, but i took 1 month breaks between books. now i'm 10% into book 4, i'm reading faster and i won't take breaks anymore. so... maybe a year from now? 🤣🤣 gosh, just noticed how much of a commitment WoT is haha although, i don't think KKC fans would complain with a release date coming up in less than a year.
@@CapturedInWords Thank you, I watched every other video somewhat similar to this one in TH-cam and not one could scratch the itch, you're the best one. Cheers!
Thanks dude, about half way through the book I took a few month off and didn't touch it. With all the names it was hard for me to get back into it lol. Great work
Excellent, excellent review! I can't remember the last time I watched a 40 min + anything on TH-cam. Well done, good sir. I'll be rewatching this again to get a refresher for when book 3 comes out!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I put a ton of work into this video, also I made a part 2 if you missed it: th-cam.com/video/d7tdaEU5pD4/w-d-xo.html and I'll be making summary videos for The Wise Man's Fear in January :)

How skarpi knew kvothes name and how he said he still had friends in the church always made me think he was an amyr.

I wonder if there's a connection between the warning from Ben to 'Be wary of Folly' and the sword named Folly hung on the wall.
...
There sure is something going on with that
I think that's why Kvothe named it folly. Because he was just a careless 20 year old with a sword, like Ben warned.
I assumed it was a throwback to Ben, kvothe must have done something with it to change its name or it's a different sword than the one he got earlier

If it wasn't for your videos, the wait for the 3rd book would be unbearable. Thank you for making all of this amazing content! You leave no stone unturned
Thank you for reminding me of why I liked this book when I first read it about 10 years ago. I'm really looking forward to book 3 so I could reread the whole series, but meanwhile your video is the next best thing. Looking forward to part 2.
And it was a really beatiful video, as usual!
That was absolutely amazing. I was pretty captured by your editing and all the art. This will for sure be a video I come back to to freshen myself up for the eventual day the doors of stone come out!
This is just what I have been waiting for, I think that when the final book is out, these will be really popular.
I hope so!
the series is amazing, and your theory videos revealed a ton of details i missed because i was so engrossed in the story
I'm glad I can help reveal some clues and hidden details! Rothfuss really is a intricate writer, so there's still some things people point out to me that I didn't notice too. That's one of the amazing things about this series!
Also your voice-acting is great! Love the voice for old-cob. I think you could easily get a job narrating audio-books or even voice acting
Great video! Good catch with Chronicler not using Iron against the scrael.
Your videos got me into Kingkiller, and I just finished Wise Man's Fear. This is perfect timing for me 🙌
I’ve just finished my fourth re-read !
Talk about perfect timing.
You are by far the best King Killer Chronicle chronicler on TH-cam.
Without imposing, I think we wouldn’t mind a few videos about The Stormlight Archive books. Character analysis, Parchendi Lore, or Roshar history. Anything to keep the waiting tender.
With a huge gratitude for your work !
❤️👌
I haven't read the book yet, but want to support the channel, so I'll watch with the volume off! And then come back in a month or two to see everything I missed during my first reading!
Thank you, I really appreciate that! That definitely helps boost it in the algorithm! :)
@@CapturedInWords I may have to move Name of the Wind up my TBR so I can actually watch the video! Although, you're editing is so good that this was still pretty entertaining without sound!
Not even halfway thru, but I must admit that I cannot wait to see a follow up on the second book as well!
This was so great. It felt like a documentary about the book. Thanks so much for the great content!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
Yess let's go! Read the first 2 books twice so far! Cant not wait for Doors of Stone. And love the theatricality in this summary!
Same I believe I've read them two or three times now and I'm definitely going to read them again right before the third book is finally released. I assume you've also read the slow regard of silent things? That short novel about Auri was so damn good!
@@cloudbloom Oh definitely have to read them again before DoS! And yes I have read the Auri story once. I hope Patrick gives us more novellas too!
Just finished my first read through of the series last week and found your channel after. So this is perfect timing!
That's awesome, haha definitely perfect timing! Glad you found the channel! :)
I wish I could upvote this twice. Please more long form videos on the series. Great content.
This took me a while to watch, but my god, this is quite likely your best video so far. Amazing production!
Thanks so much Petrik! 😀I've been meaning to make this video for a long time, so it feels good to finally post part 1. I spent way too much time on the writing/editing 😂
@@CapturedInWords The Kingkiller Chronicle deserve only the finest quality, and you delivered. This makes me excited to reread it again at the end of this year! Woohoo! 😃
Nice my friend, I can't watch now but I already dropped the like and I'm looking forward to see it when I can!
I love your videos. I have never watched a 40min youtube video before and this one flew by. Thank you for not wasting time, you are so good at this!
just finished oh my god
incredible
the way he writes conversation and observes the little details of how people act without bogging down the prose is an absolute pleasure
incredible fantasy now onto the next!!
This was a great summary as I had forgotten so many details by now from the first book.
It was so well done that I started to watch and it seemed like only 5 minutes had passed. Thank you! Great video!
Im planning on finally reading this book in 2022, but since im caught up in many series i was afraid to start another one since i probably wont be able to read book 2 right away. THis video saved me tho, thank you so much for these Jay! Your WoK summary helped a TON since i read WoR a year after WoK, and it is my favorite video on all of booktube.
I'd definitely recommend reading the books as well, one of my favourites books ever
I haven't watched the video yet, but I'd recommend reading the books. I just did about my 6th reread (audio this time) and it is still great. If you like audiobooks I recommend the nick podehl version
Ves what other series are you readimg?
@@JohnDoe-xf9ly nothing atm. I've read asoiaf multiple times waiting on the next book for that. I have trouble finding a series I like. I've read the first wheel of time book but couldn't get into the series. I've also read the first mistborn book bir couldn't get into that either. I'm looking for another series to get into but haven't found any that hold my attention yet. I'm all for suggestions.
Edit, I just realized you weren't asking me, but I'm still open to suggestions lol
@@SerDiesel90 what you into i got like over 1000 books on kindel
Incredible production value, thank you for this! Even though I just finished my fifth reread there were a lot of things you showed me here that I didn't quite notice.
Awesome!! I'm glad I can help point out some things you didn't notice before! That's one thing I love about this series, with every reread there's always some new detail to pick up on
Thank you so much for this video! I plan on re-reading this at the end of this year when my friend is going to buddy read it with me!
Fantastic video! the lore in name of the wind is my favourite thing about the series! It amazes me how dense Patrick rothfuss has made it. Your video has given me an itch to re read it 👍
thank you for the amazing content. the love you have for the king killer chronicle and fantasy literature can be seen to your work.. purely magnificent.
I'm so happy I have such a great community here that loves the videos I put out! 😊Thank you
You are the man for this summary I wanted to dive back in to the series and reread it for the 4th time but wanted to start with WMF and this has allowed it thanks.
That went so smooth I couldn't believe it's been 40 mins?! Well done. Excited for part 2
You just made my day with this. Your last video on the Doors of Stone prologue got me in the mood for my 5th re read, and now this has forced my hand.
This is one of those amazing videos I’ll be going back to again and again. Tremendous work. Looking forward to the rest.
This is AMAZING!! Thank you for all your hard work! Can’t wait for part two!! 😃
Thanks so much for watching Danielle! 😀
I can recommend scanning along in the book with this wonderful video, its a wonderful experience
OMG 40 minutes! So looking forward tot that, thanks and lots of love
I love this content. I started following you after I ran across your in depth "Way of Kings" summary. More of these please.
Me too! I saw the way of kings summary then saw there was a deep dive for KKC and started applauding 😂
It's been a few years now since I've read this. Such a great reminisce of a great story
Can't wait for part 2! Thanks for the deep dive. Made me go back and reread both current books again.
You're welcome, and I'm happy I inspired another person to reread them! :D
The mention of the four plate door having "No hinges or handle" sounds, rhythmically, similar to Taborlin having "No key or candle." Now, there may not be anything to this, but I have heard Rothfuss say that he likes, and works hard to have his prose read rhythmically like this. He's talked about a lot of editing time spent for this particular purpose. Is it possible this is a small hint as to what is behind the four plate door? maybe to do with Taborlin?
Such an epic summary, I read the book last year but this has helped me so much remember why I enjoyed this book.
Man your editing is amazing. I already knew it was amazing but man the editing in this videos is just on a whole different level. I can't wait into part two.
Thank you so much for all these videos.
Somehow i feel like there is no need for a third book, as we could puzzle together the whole picture from the 2 first books. 😂
Good job on these in depth rothfuss. He's the only living fantasy author I think worthy of signed first editions. Can't wait to collect Doors of Stone. (Hey Pat!)
Loving this! I've never read the actual book, I've only listened to the audio book twice. Lots of the details of the writing style can be missed when it's not written I never noticed that scarpi knew his name but he never told him his name
I definitively should read the books again although I may still miss some details due the traduction, here I noticed a couple of extra things, thanks for this new project
This video could not have come at a better time! I dropped this book after 200 pages for a few months, picked it back up yesterday and was in desperate need of refreshing my memory on the tales that Trapis and Scarpi tell in Tarbean!!! Couldn't remember any of it
Wow that is perfect timing! I'm glad this video could help be a refresher!
@@CapturedInWords it really did man! Thanks a lot, amazing content.
Now that I've reached the university sections I am super into the story. It has really picked up! I am getting through it very quickly hahaha will make sure to watch part 2 when you release it and I've finished it 😁
I finished this book yesterday. I immediately picked up book two and started reading it. Name of the wind is my favorite book of all time.
Would you be willing to cover more outlandish theories? I have dozens of those and would get a kick out of seeing the best of them reach youtube in this format.
Actually I've been meaning to make a 'Crackpot Theories' episode where I go over several really out there ones! If you have any you'd like to share feel free to let me know!
Another amazing video. Thank you so much for the work and time you put into making these!
Thank you so much for this man, would love to re-read it one day but good to have this has a resource and to hear all your insight of multiple re reads!
35:36 the artwork of Kvothe in front of the horns has his shadow lying, as if pinned, on a spoked wheel.
Nice touch to whom ever made that one.
Thanks for this content! An excellent refresher!
Glad it was helpful!
Well time for a reread... Thank you for superb Summary.
Was really cool to watch this video and be reminded of an awesome story like this one! I don’t think I’ve read this book since maybe 2018 or so. Can’t wait for what is to come
Great video. I loved the "in depth summary" you did for The Way Of Kings also. Im sure they take a long time to knock out, but they're great. Keep them up with all your favorites.
Yeah they're definitely the videos that take the most amount of time, though it's mostly writing the script that is the longest part. But I'll for sure be making many more of these! 😃
Oooh! I paused this to comment!
I'm super excited to hear this, because I have read, (welllll, actually listened to) the books over and over. I can't ever get tired of them, because there's little things here and there that I didn't notice before, each time!
So glad you made this. I'm finally planning on reading book 2 so the refresher is nice
4:24 gosh your Old Cob voice is brilliant😂
This is amazing please continue this for the second book too
Thanks for this one, I have been planning to give a WMF another chance this year, this will help me dive straight into it!!!!
I really loved watching video ! Thank you! Can't wait for part 2 and the videos you'll do for wise man's fear!
This brings The Name of the Wind to a whole new level. Cant wait to hear part two. You have a rare gift. Thanks. PJ😎
Do you give lessons sir? I am both the ancient gamer combined with the new age youtube personality! All help is greatly appreciated in this quarter given. #GoldNoblesinReturn
@@patrickolsen8692 Thanks for watching the video! 😀 I don't really give any lessons though I'm thinking of creating a video editing course on Skillshare in the future! I'll also make a video on my channel some time soon about how I edit my videos
Fine, i'll read it. I'll do it as soon as I finish WoT. Possibly there will be a release date for the final book by then haha
I hope so. This at least gives us a timeline. At what pace you're ready WOT?
@@bookswine1498 well i was reading it slowly because i was focused on finishing other things. last year a read 3 books and read each one within a month, but i took 1 month breaks between books. now i'm 10% into book 4, i'm reading faster and i won't take breaks anymore. so... maybe a year from now? 🤣🤣 gosh, just noticed how much of a commitment WoT is haha although, i don't think KKC fans would complain with a release date coming up in less than a year.
You HAVE to do one of these with the second book please I beg you.
I'll definitely make some similar videos for book 2!
@@CapturedInWords Thank you, I watched every other video somewhat similar to this one in TH-cam and not one could scratch the itch, you're the best one. Cheers!
Finally new kingkiller content ❤
Wow wow wow!! I ordered the 2 books after listening to you..keep up the good work Amogis
Thanks dude, about half way through the book I took a few month off and didn't touch it. With all the names it was hard for me to get back into it lol. Great work
Excellent, excellent review! I can't remember the last time I watched a 40 min + anything on TH-cam. Well done, good sir. I'll be rewatching this again to get a refresher for when book 3 comes out!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I put a ton of work into this video, also I made a part 2 if you missed it: th-cam.com/video/d7tdaEU5pD4/w-d-xo.html and I'll be making summary videos for The Wise Man's Fear in January :)
When book three comes out, lol. Funny joke.
Waiting for part 2! And of course, you do realize that then you'll need to do this for WMF.
Part 2 is up now! I'll definitely be making similar videos for book 2 :)
