I felt like Icarium got an awful lot of attention earlier in the series for someone who played no role at all in the final battle. I really hope he gets some attention in future books.

Quiters - Inquisitors always made more sense to me.

Kingkiller is decent but overrated. The first book has some good bits but also plenty of places where you could see it was someone's first book. The second one builds more on Rothfuss' weaknesses than strengths. The third one looks like it will never be written at this point, since Rothfuss seems more interested in being a Celebrity Author than in publishing books.

I thought Rejoice was a little smug in some ways but also thought-provoking, and certainly not awful.

Eh, when I started reading the series, the emphasis on the importance of gender felt new and interesting, but with trans rights such a big topic in my life today, I feel differently about it. One of the problems with writing a series over decades is that the world can move on while you work.

Barreft posted:So Twitter basically ruined you able to enjoy anything without that lens? It's rather less Twitter and more observing the experience of my genderqueer kid, my friend parenting a transgender kit, a coworker transitioning, and a friend transitioning. I don't have a lot of patience for gender essentialism anymore. A careful reading might also note that at no point did I say "ruined" or even complain that I was offended. I said I feel differently about it than I did decades ago. I can't help but wonder if you actually read what I wrote or just decided that a person who would make a post like mine must be a person you're mad at.

Wants to be a famous writer more than he wants to write.

The aunt is not one of the sex ninjas, she's a grumpy member of the lower gentry, unless my memory is way off base. Not that it matters so far...
