Purchased on Mighty Ape

Not a huge fan of the character of Bast but I loved Rothfuss's writing style as always and the tid bits of information about the fae in this world. Not a must read, but worth picking up if you're a huge fan of the series.

Description

This is a stunning novella set in the Kingkiller universe, and a genuine must-read for fans.
A fully illustrated and expanded story, it gives readers an insight into Bast – one of the
series best-loved and most intriguing characters.

Bast knows how to bargain. The give-and-take of a negotiation is as familiar to him as the
in-and-out of breathing; to watch him trade is to watch an artist at work. But even a master's brush can slip. When he accepts a gift, taking something for nothing, Bast's whole world is knocked askew, for he knows how to bargain – but not how to owe.

From dawn to midnight over the course of a single day, follow the Kingkiller Chronicle's most charming fae as he schemes and sneaks, dancing into trouble and back out again with uncanny grace.

The Narrow Road Between Desires is Bast's story. In it he traces the old ways of making and breaking, following his heart even when doing so goes against his better judgement. After all, what good is caution if it keeps him from danger and delight?
