''The Kingkiller Chronicle'' is a fantasy trilogy by Patrick Rothfuss, telling the autobiography of Kvothe,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How to pronounce Kvothe's name )〕 an adventurer and famous musician. The plot is divided into two different action threads: the present, where Kvothe tells the story of his life to Devan Lochees (known as Chronicler) in the main room of his inn, and Kvothe's past, the story in question, which makes up the majority of the books. The present-day interludes are in the third person from the perspective of multiple characters, while the story of Kvothe's life is told entirely in the first person from his own perspective. The series also contains many metafictional stories-within-stories from varying perspectives, most of which are recounted by Kvothe, having been heard from other characters in his past. == Books in the series == As of August 2015, the first two books have been released. A release date for the third book hasn't been announced, but a release in 2016 has been cited as most probable. #''Day One: The Name of the Wind'' (April 2007) #''Day Two: The Wise Man's Fear'' (March 2011)〔 #''Day Three: The Doors of Stone'' (working title)〔 It will involve the chronicling of Kvothe's life from where ''The Wise Man's Fear'' left off until an unknown time and will be the third and final day of the story.
