There are also a few instances where people flip each other the bird. “Oh my god,” “Dear lord,” “Merciful Tehlu,” and “Blackened body of God” are some examples. The Lord’s name is used in vain both as a general term and specifically regarding various in-story gods. Words that aren’t necessarily curses, but are often seen by some audiences as dirty or rough, are in there as well, such as “w****” and free use of various sexual organs. There’s a trove of recognizable words used in abundance, such as “D***”, “S***”, “H***”, “B******”, “B****”, and various words that include “A**”, but I don’t ever recall the word “F***” appearing even once. Content Warning Language The Kingkiller Chronicle is ripe with vulgar dialogue, though not all of it would be considered an expletive in our language. It is the story of a man so powerful that he changed history… whether he meant to or not. In doing so, he provides new light to the rumors that plague the Four Corners of Civilization, and debunks several myths about his own actions and motivations. However, when approached by a man named “Chronicler,” he finds himself needing to look inside so that he may unveil the truth surrounding his name and notoriety. Story Kvothe, a legend who isn’t interested in such acclaim, is waiting out his days in the lonely barkeep he’s erected in solitude. For added flavor, I will be sprinkling quotations from the books throughout the review, and though I will refrain from being overly specific with my details, there are certainly going to be spoilers of a sort, so tread with caution.

It only seems appropriate, considering the series’ unwavering ability to shoehorn its way into so many hearts, that we take our own look at The Kingkiller Chronicle and put a Christian lens to it. These two books are regarded highly within the realm of contemporary epic fantasy, stealing the attention of millions of fans and daring to stand among other titans within the genre. This means I will be covering content spread through both of the available Kingkiller Chronicle books by Patrick Rothfuss– The Name of the Wind and its sequel, The Wise Man’s Fear.

I figure it best to disclose that knowledge walking in the door, so you aren’t confused or surprised. Genre: Epic Fantasy I’d like to precede this review by letting you know I will be spanning the entire series with one article. “There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.” Author: Patrick Rothfuss
