jtobin 's review for:
Blood of Elves
by Andrzej Sapkowski
The author is very clearly having trouble transitioning from short stories to an actual novel, which is clear from the loosely-connected vignette structure of this book. He is also still bad at writing women, the main character is still bland and boring, but there’s hints here of more interesting material.
How can individuals live moral lives when inside rotten institutions without hope for systemic change? How do colonized peoples survive in complex international situations? Maybe the sequels continue to focus more on these questions and less on the edgelord garbage and barstool humor, but it’d take a good bit of change to make this recommendable.
