I was dead wrong!! Anyway, it was a very enjoyable read and I'm looking forward to the other two books in The Kingkiller Chronicle trilogy.
Possibly my favourite book of 2010. I still haven't read the second one though even with an ebook on my Kindle and a paperback in my bookshelf.

I always find it harder to fit in the really enormous books these days.
