A lovely little novella. I really enjoyed this book. It is a re-write of Lightening Tree but stands alone as a good book all on its own. We get to know Bast much better and his character, desires, thoughts etc. Bast is such a fascinating character and it’s great to see how he operates.
I laughed a lot and bemoaned and was intrigued. So happy to have another Rothfuss book. Even if it wasn’t DOS.

Like anything written by Rothfuss, this book is beautiful. Despite the themes I've added to the content warnings, it's mostly a charming and clever book, filled with mysteries and (some) answers.
Bonus points for being explicitly trans supportive, twice, and for making Bast's obviously fluid sexuality canon. The best thing about it is the language/prose, though. This little book was everything I wanted and more.
