And  Rupert Degas, veteran narrator of some of the best fantasy books ever written (including The Road and Ghormanghast) puts his considerable skill into the character of Kvothe, the hero of the Kingkiller Chronicles. Note that there are TWO different narrators, Nick Podel (the original) and Rupert Degas as an updated narrator.
