Started reading this to get a glimpse into the world of the Witcher because I bought The Witcher III: Wild Hunt but haven't played a previous game or know much about the setting. When I saw this book is a short story collection I expected worse and was positively surprised. It's not what I expected because the stories are all linked together, the whole picture only becomes clear as you advance in the stories which are set on the same timeline but not in chronological order. Recently, I had trouble to get myself to read but this definitely helped me out of it. I think I might read the next book as well. Would recommend, I'm looking forward to the actual novels of the series tho.
