I enjoyed the book as I was familiar with the characters after playing Witcher 3. Nice backstory.

Quelle déception... Une chronologie inutilement complexe, une histoire sans intrigue, au moins un million de blagues misogynes et une culture du viol omniprésente... Seulement quelques passages plus intéressants et amusants mais un bilan particulièrement négatif... Je l'ai fini pour la gloire mais je ne toucherais pas à la suite avec un bâton.

A collection of very enjoyable stories that primarily explore the code of conduct and morality which forms the centrepiece of Geralt's identity. I especially appreciated the small scale of the stories, typically concerning only a handful of individuals in a small township or out-of-the-way barony somewhere. My only complaint is that with the final story, 'The Last Wish', the relationship between Geralt and Yennefer is not at all realistic or believable. Hopefully this trend does not continue and it is more well-handled in the later books.
