Baptism of Fire by Andrzej Sapkowski
3.5
adventurous emotional tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

The third book of the Witcher Saga progressed the story in a much more relaxed way than the previous books. Indeed, there is no major plot progression concerning the main characters (Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer). Instead of plot progression though, the readers were offered a diverse and lovable side characters like Milva, Zoltan, Cahir and Regis.

Personally I enjoy the change of pace. However, I can’t give it a higher rating because the author kept throwing names of places which when coupled with his insistence on not releasing an official map, make reading certain parts taxing and tedious.
