Well, I'll pop into this thread as I finish each. Princess Bride first,  but next I'm not sure. I'll probably finish the Live ship traders, then either Neverwhere or the Patrick Rothfuss book, which is just a giant tome of a book, just like the first one. I can hardly wait to dig in!

Beware "The Name of the Wind." It's but the first part of a longer tale. A tale that isn't finished yet and Patrick Rothfuss seems to write on the same time scale as George R.R. Martin. :
That being said, it is (so far) one of the greatest works of fantasy fiction ever and I can't wait to hear the rest of the Kingkiller's tale. If the following books are half as good as the first two, they'll still be better than 2/3 of other fantasy.

Oh, I'm already sadly aware of that fact.  And I agree, the first book is one of the best fantasy books I've ever read!  For a giant monster of a book, it was hard to put down.  I devoured it.
I'm very eager to start the second one, called the Wise Mans Fear.  It is fully as gigantic as the first.  I do hope the 3rd comes out in a reasonable amount of time.  On the bright side, there really will only be 3, so even if it takes him 8 years (the distance between first and second was 4 years), I can live with that (that would be 2019?), if it wraps up the story and does NOT pull a Martin and turn it into 4 more books!  lol.
Thank you kindly for the recommendations!  They will be added to my "check these out when I've finished the 11 on my plate" list, which does exist and already contains 2 books and a novella.
