Well in book no.1 he describes the broken tree name as "prophetic." So my guess is whatever that refers to will happen within Kvothe's narrative. So I doubt it references the Cthaeh, since he didn't even realize it was that dangerous until Bast told him about it.

It can mean multiple things. The obvious meaning is the tree he hit with lightning in this book.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

It never occurred to me that different national business like Barnes and Noble and Amazon would skew differently for genre sales. Thanks for the tip on that Peter. Very interesting.
