The Tower of the Swallow by Andrzej Sapkowski

3.0

---

This was a strange one. I'm currently reading the last book and when thinking about what to say I realised all of these books have blended into one in my mind, so there's not a huge amount I can say about this.

I am enjoying this series but not much happens in each book, it could probably have been condensed down quite a lot. There was a lot of POVs in this book, which was a little bit confusing at times. The jumping around in time is what really got to me though. I'm not entirely sure when everything was happening because there was so much back and forth. I kind of understand why but I would have liked a bit more chronology because it was definitely confusing.

I didn't much like the narration of this one at all. I preferred how the story was told in the last couple of novels. The narration style itself was why there was so much jumping around in time. There was also a couple of places where it jumped from past tense to present all of a sudden which threw me off a little bit.

I think The Lady of the Lake will probably be similar but we'll see. All in all I am enjoying reading these books but they are dragging a little bit.
