The Narrow Road Between Desires

Empathetic to the love for your family, and it truly shines through. Love the exploration of Bast and his heritage. Rike and the children are very fleshed out and believable. Needless topical issues in a couple of places. Gorgeous prose and slice of life, giving more metrics to the magic. Book three is saved in my searches and I hope to clear that soon (finish the next in the series PLEASE).

an absolutely wonderful dive into the viciousness and empathy dichotomy of Bast. I'd recommend picking up the physical copy of this book. It's gorgeously illustrated and lovely to look at. And it's a wonderful return to the world of Temerant, and Pat's wonderful evocative writing. Every word has been curated so carefully. there's gravity in every moment. Ignore the 1* haters, reviewing another book yet to be published, as opposed to this one. Well done Pat! still got the magic in spades

hey pat, i'm a 22 year old girl that's been a fan of your books since i was in high school. definitely found myself connecting to all the characters in your book, hungry for more stories and words and just overall seeking the ability to escape into your books again and again. i've reread everything over and over through the years. the slow regard of silent things helped me through a really hard time. Auri was a character I needed most of all and didn't even know. this story with Bast, after all this while is hitting in the best way. not to mention how sweet the authors note was. i know you get some bullies, but there's a lot of people rooting for you and Kvothe and everyone in Temerant too. can't wait for more good words :-)
