It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

The Name of the Wind
by
Patrick Rothfuss
Dragonfly
, January 01, 2011
A beautifully written page-turner set in a fully realized alternate world. On a single day in a country inn, the narrator relates his youth as a poor but gifted scholar struggling to pay for his education and chafing at the restrictions of his society. The story is so engrossing and the prose so lively that the reader is apt to miss the elegant structure of the narrative. The Name of the Wind gives not only the pleasure of a good yarn, but also the satisfaction that comes from contemplating any well-made piece of craftsmanship. This novel is planned as the first of a trilogy. This reviewer, for one, is anxiously awaiting volume 2, due out in Spring 2011.
