Dieser Teil der Hexerreihe führt fort, was die Vorgänger schon so hervorragend erreichen und führt darüber hinaus einige sehr bedeutsame Charaktere ein, die ich bereits aus den Videospielen kannte und nun besser verstehe.
Exakt 300 Seiten braucht es bis meine Lieblingscharakterin

Yennefer

endlich wieder auftauchte und trotzdem (oder gerade deshalb durch die Spannung) hat sich "Feuertaufe" so fesselnd und schnell gelesen. 
Bemerkswert ist auch das Weiterführen der gleichgeschlechtlichen Liebesbeziehung

von Ciri

und die Betonung, dass nur Schwangere selbst entscheiden sollten, ob sie einen Schwangerschaftsabbruch durchführen wollen (dies wurde bereits früher in der Reihe schon etabliert, kam hier aber noch intensiver vor).
Ich bin hin und weg von dieser Reihe!!!

2.5

The first half of this was so slow, it felt like basically nothing happened the first 140 pages. There's so much Sapkowski just references during the first two books, it seems weird that this one is almost just a filler to put the players in the right spots for the next part of the story
