Everything @_danny@Lemmy.World said is fair.

I would add, as someone who read "The Lightning Tree" but not recently, it is recognizable as the same story with quite a bit added. It's a nice novella and I like Rothfuss's turn of phrase, but it doesn't have the meat of the main story or the whimsy of "Slow Regard of Silent Things"

Also it is a little weird that the author's note starts with "You might not want to buy this book", of course I got it out of the library so I guess I can't complain.
