The Name of the Wind: He Took an Arrow to the Knee

The current GeekNights Book Club selection is The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, itself being book one of the "Kingkiller Chronicles."

This is a snippet of discussion prior to the recording of an unrelated show, where we were discussing the current book club book. After describing the basic premise, Scott goes on to point out that "I used to be an Adventurer, but I took an arrow to the knee" and its ilk (made famous by Skyrim and the resultant memes) seem to come originally from this very book. It may be a coincidence though. We then discuss the mechanics of an arrow going into one's knee.
