Patrick Rothfuss vuelve al mundo de la Crónica del Asesino de Reyes con una novela protagonizada por Bast, uno de los personajes más queridos de los lectores.
Si hay algo que Bast sabe hacer es negociar. Verlo hacer un trato es ver trabajar a un artista…, pero incluso el pincel de un maestro puede errar. Sin embargo, cuando recibe un regalo y lo acepta sin ofrecer nada a cambio, su mundo se tambalea. Pues, aunque sabe regatear, no sabe deberle nada a nadie.
Desde el amanecer a la medianoche, durante el transcurso de un día, seguiremos al fae más encantador de la Crónica del Asesino de Reyes mientras baila con el peligro una y otra vez con asombrosa gracilidad.
El estrecho sendero entre deseos es la historia de Bast. En ella, nuestro protagonista sigue a su propio corazón, aunque sea en contra de su buen juicio. Porque, al fin y al cabo, ¿de qué sirve la cautela si lo mantiene a uno alejado de la aventura y del placer?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
An instant New York Times, USA Today and Indie Bestseller!
#1 New York Times-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 Nate Taylor, this touching stand-alone story is sure to please new readers and veteran Rothfuss fans alike.
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?
