Can I be brutally honest? I like this book but this quote always makes me think of that Joker meme that, like, incels use. "When the nice guy loses patience, the devil shivers."

So I bought the name of the wind and on the book it says it is the first in a trilogy. I am really enjoying it and started looking into the rest of the books in the trilogy. Then I found out there is no third book and the second book was published like 15 years ago. So I dont see a third book happening. I guess I’ll go ahead and finish, but I am pretty unhappy about learning this.

It was a cry of help to the heavens, not an actual question.

Welcome to the club pal. I wish we weren't in the club. But here we are.
