The University, a renowned bastion of knowledge, attracts the brightest minds to unravel the mysteries of enlightened sciences like artificing and alchemy. Yet deep below its bustling halls lies a complex and cavernous maze of abandoned rooms and ancient passageways - and in the heart of it all lives Auri.
Formerly a student at the University, now Auri spends her days tending the world around her. She has learned that some mysteries are best left settled and safe. No longer fooled by the sharp rationality so treasured by the University, Auri sees beyond the surface of things, into subtle dangers and hidden names.
At once joyous and haunting, THE SLOW REGARD OF SILENT THINGS is a rich, atmospheric and lyrical tale, featuring one of the most beloved characters from Rothfuss' acclaimed fantasy series.
Patrick Rothfuss (born June 6, 1973) is an American author, best known for his epic fantasy series *The Kingkiller Chronicle*. Born in Madison, Wisconsin, he matriculated at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, initially studying chemical engineering before switching to English. Rothfuss spent nearly a decade working on his debut novel, [*The Name of the Wind*][1], which was published in 2007 to critical acclaim. The novel won the Quill Award and became a New York Times Bestseller. The success of his first book allowed him to focus on writing full-time, leading to the publication of the second book in the series, [*The Wise Man's Fear*][2], in 2011, which also topped the New York Times Bestseller list. In addition to his writing, Rothfuss founded Worldbuilders, a charity fundraiser.
