Does anyone have some early Rothfuss signatures in their collection? Looking at a copy of The Name of the Wind but I must admit the sig looks a bit suspicious...
Shawn @ Grim Oak Press is auctioning off an S/L copy of Unfettered:

Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
Sweet ! Congrats
That's nice! I want to add that dust jacket to my collection. I've got the Fabio cover

Ha! I like that cover too (probably more), and hope to add it to my collection as well, though I'll probably just get a regular 1st/1st and skip on getting another signed copy.
Got this a while back but forgot to add it to the thread. It's the "Proof" of Unfettered, though I find that term highly dubious considering the high volume of the print run. Still pretty cool. Clothbound instead of leather and now slipcase or limitation number, but still signed by all the crew and with the original art.
I'm thinking about getting slipcases for NOWT and WMF. Does anyone here the dimensions for these two books.
Watching Orange is the new Black. Season 4 Episode 8. They just mentioned Name of the Wind and Wise Man's Fear!!
Hi! I´m fairly new to this (actually this is my first post). Loved the kingkiller chronicles and just finished "The Lightning tree" novella in Rogues and started to remember how I long for "Doors of Stone". I´ve decided I want a first edition of the books (if the price is fair). Was hoping you people could help me with a couple of questions.
I see there are several covers to "The name of the wind" and I can´t figure out which one is the "real" first edition. On wiki it says that there are two possible hardcovers printed in 2007 by DAW books: one with the face of the green man and one with the figure of Kvothe. Also there is a later printing depicting a cloaked figure. Which one of these covers are considered "the real" first edition? I also have a noob question: "S/L", it means Signed/Limited right? :p And when on earth is Subterranean going to make a lavish edition of these books?? Can´t wait.
Found this on Patrick's blog: http://blog.patrickrothfuss.com/2008...and-new-cover/
Breeblebrox, the first edition has either Kvothe (they call this one the Fabio cover) or the Stone/Green Man.
S/L is Signed Limited. SP is supposed to be publishing the S/Ls but nothing has been announced. I'm wondering if they are waiting for Pat to finish the final book?

Yeah what Becca said. Neither cover is considered a true 1st as they were released simultaneously. As far as the actual cover art.. the Kvothe cover was created first and after they printed out dust just jackets they decided they didn't really like it so they enlarged the background image and touched it up and created the Green Man cover. In my opinion, the Kvothe cover is more desirable but I haven't seen a major price difference between the two covers.
Also can't wait for a S/L edition but I am also in the same boat as becca that they probably want something more concrete on day 3 before the issue that. I just hope I have a heads up as I know I'd love to have a shot at a lettered.
Just got done listening to Pat's twitch and he announced they will be doing a 10th anniversary edition with 20 or so illustrations. Hopefully this is released as a signed/limited.
Here you go. It was just an announcement. No dates given, no idea if it will be a S/L or even who will publish it. It's getting illustrated so that is good. I hope it's a SP s/l but who knows.

Do any of you have special slipcases for your copies of Name of the Wind?
I was thinking of approaching Jeff to see if he could do slipcases for this. I am not much for design so I would need help with that, maybe Id see if Simon could help me with that.
Would anyone be interested in one of these slipcases if I move forward with this?
