A review by veraann
The Last Wish by Andrzej Sapkowski
5.0
Short Story Collections from The Witcher Series.
Fantasy translated from Polish to English.
This is the first book I am reading in this series. After having had played a bit of the videogame and watched the first season of the show on Netflix.
This was great character development book. It is all about Geralt and a few characters he comes across in the world. It is written with his PoV of different stories he is telling that take their influence from well known fairytales. Though we see some strong female characters it is very male dominant. This may be the way the books are written world build wise or just because this is from the male point of view. I know some people that can not stomach some of the content they feel is very misogynistic. As much fantasy can be or seem even with strong female roles. Despite this, for me, I still enjoyed the book and stories in there.
