5.0

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!!!

Where the earlier books set the scene, introduced our dramatic personae, and generally got the ball rolling, it is here that it starts to gain momentum. It will be helpful at this point in the story to start making a flowchart of different characters & their storylines. Also—despite Dianna Wynne Jones’ opinion about fantasyland maps—google the Witcher map that Netflix put out, it will be useful as everything starts to go into motion. And be sure to have Tower of Swallows on hand because you’re going to want to go straight on to the fourth book.
