I’m a “Baptism of Fire” girl, not gonna lie. I prefer the pacing and writing in the deep build-up books, compared to this one where things happen. A lot of the plot elements seem unnecessary, a whole bunch of characters exist simply to be killed off eventually, the shifting timelines make the book feel distracting and disjointed. It’s still good but it’s not what I love The Witcher series most for.
