Handled properly, it's more dramatic than any apocalypse or goblin army could ever be.","author":"Patrick Rothfuss","tags":["fantasy","fantasy-books","inspirational","writing"],"id":36443,"author_id":"Patrick+Rothfuss"},{"text":"When his dead father touched his hand, Athson almost dropped the arrow.'
