Cool Robert A. Heinlein's Juveniles (Scribner) & Patric Rothfuss' The Kingkiller Chronicle

Charlie...when I began reading The Name of the Wind I had just read your post about you currently reading Starman Jones and as I progressed in my reading I began to be reminded of Robert A. Heinlein's Citizen of the Galaxy! I've never heard anyone compare Rothfuss to Heinlein, at least not till now! But anyway I'm on a Nancy Drew break after having finished 25% of Day 1 of Kvothe's story!
