The first two books in the series have been widely successful, earning critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase.
Rothfuss has been working on Doors of Stone for several years, and fans have been eagerly awaiting its release. However, the author has faced several challenges in completing the novel, which has led to significant delays in the release date.
Doors of Stone Release Date Delayed
The Doors of Stone Release Date has been delayed several times over the years, and fans have been left disappointed by the lack of updates from the author. In a 2019 blog post, Rothfuss acknowledged the delay and apologized to his fans for the long wait.
The author has faced several challenges in completing the novel, including health issues and personal struggles. In addition, Rothfuss has stated that he wants to ensure that the book lives up to the high expectations of his fans, which has led to additional delays in the release date.
#1 in Trilogy: The Name of The Wind
The Kingkiller Chronicle is based on the life story of Kvothe who is a rural innkeeper but in the past, he was a wanderer and musician. He turns into a wizard and gets the tag of “Kingkiller”. The series is the transcription of his three-day-long oral autobiography, in a secondary world fantasy, the setting is named Temerant.
The narrator tells about his childhood when he spent years in a crime-ridden city as an orphan. His only chance in life came when he entered the Legendary school of magic. His life turns fugitive after the murder of a king, making him the renowned “KingKiller”.
#2 in Trilogy: The Wise Man’s Fear
The second book of this series displays Kvothe’s journey to seek answers. He wishes to learn about the mysterious Amyr, the Chandrian, and the death of his parents. He is put on trial by Adem mercenaries while he travels into the Fae realm. He meets Felurian there, the fascinating woman no man can resist and no man has survived until Kvothe.
The book tells Kvothe’s journey on a path full of difficulties in becoming a legend in his own time. Will Kvothe be able to survive the fascination and pull of Felurian or will she mark the end of his journey?
#3 in Trilogy: The Doors of Stone Release Date
During one of Rothfuss’ Twitch live streams for his Worldbuilders charity, the writer promised to provide a full spoiler-free chapter of The Doors of Stone once he collects $300,000 in donations. This threshold was beaten by the fans in no time. Now in a recent stream, Rothfuss provided a little update about when this chapter will arrive.
He mentioned there are a lot of reasons behind him moving slowly about the third book and there is a lot of stuff happening in his life too. The author regrets not providing any updates about the chapter’s status. He wishes he had done it already and had shared it with the fans so that they both could have enjoyed it together. Rothfuss is a perfectionist and this is the main reason behind him working so slowly.
He doesn’t want to miss any important segment of the story and wants to provide the fans with the best he can. About the prologue of last December, titled “A Silence of Three Parts”, has the same format as the other two books, with the same atmospheric approach.
Patrick has used clever metaphors and beautiful descriptions for everything he adds. It is just one page but still, a book can be written out of it. Right now, there is no confirmed release date, maybe the book will release next year or maybe in two years.
Seeing Rothfuss’ dedication to giving the perfect story, we may assume that the book can come at any time in the next five years. Everyone whether critics, fans, or just a book reader, is looking toward Rothfuss’ approach and is dying to know the after-story of Kvothe in this trilogy.
