Kvothe de legende. Befaamd magiër, berucht dief, meestermusicus en moordenaar. Van zijn jeugd met een groep muzikanten, zijn leven als bedelaar, tot de periode waarin hij een leerling was aan de befaamde Universiteit voor Magiërs en Alchemisten, Kvothe vertelt zijn verhaal met humor en gevoel voor tragiek. Zo onthult hij de man achter de legende – een klassieke en onvergetelijke held die de lezer vanaf de eerste pagina weet te boeien. De naam van de wind is een debuut van een klasse zoals men zelden ziet in de epische fantasy. Rothfuss vertelt het verhaal van Kvothe in de beeldende stijl en met het gevoel voor detail die doen denken aan J.R.R. Tolkien en Robin Hobb, en met de verhalende kracht van Robert Jordan. Rothfuss verweeft dit alles tot een eigen geheel dat van begin tot eind intrigeert en doet wat maar weinig schrijvers kunnen: hij raakt de lezer.
