Yeah, isn't Sanderson the single biggest name in Fantasy and has been for years? Finishing up Rothfuss's mess would be a downgrade and embarrassing for him to even consider. If I were him, I would almost be insulted if someone was pushing me to do it.mpl35 said:maverick2076 said:
Sanderson has said before he has no desire to finish either this series or Martin's.
Well now he's a well Established author that has in many ways passed both of them. Certainly rothfuss. Why would he want that headache?

#1 NYT bestselling phenomenon Patrick Rothfuss returns to the wildly popular Kingkiller Chronicle Universe with a stunning reimagining of "The Lightning Tree." Expanded to twice its previous length, and lavishly illustrated by Nathan Taylor, this touching stand-alone story is sure to please new readers and veteran Rothfuss fans alike.
No one taller than the stone.
Come to blacktree, come alone.
Tell no adult what's been said,
lest the lightning strike you dead.
When you come to the lightning tree to trade with Bast, your mortal money isn't worth much. What holds true value are older things: secrets and favors. Buttons and flowers. Lies, tricks, riddles, stones, and whatever else your heart truly desires.
Follow the Kingkiller Chronicle's most charming fae as he schemes and bargains his way through the small town of Newarre. While at first it seems that Bast must be master of this tiny domain, but while he cares nothing for the laws of man, there are older, deeper laws that bind him. And for all his cleverness, Bast finds himself trapped in ways he has never experienced before, and make hard choices and help an enemy.
Playful, sweet, and sly as Bast himself, 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. For after all, what good is wisdom if it keeps you from finding your way to danger and delight?
