Dear Santa, thank you for the dolls and pencils and the fish. It's Easter now, so I hope I didn't wake you but... honest, it is an emergency. There's a crack in my wall. Aunt Sharon says it's just an ordinary crack, but I know its not cause at night there's voices so... please please can you send someone to fix it? Or a policeman, or...
Back in a moment.
Thank you Santa.
Back in a moment.
Thank you Santa.

The Name Of The Wind
By Patrick Rothfuss
The words are pretty, but I have no interest in the main character whatsoever, and 70-odd pages in there are no other characters, only cardboard cutouts.
Taking the broken hero and winding him up and setting him on his way again, Curse of Chalion-style, could have worked well. But a two-thousand-page flashback? No. Just no.
Zero silences out of four.
