Really enjoyable and solid fantasy, and a great introduction to the series. I really liked Geralt as a MC, he’s very interesting and witty. I liked seeing the importance of the friendship between Geralt and Dandelion, and I can’t wait to see more of Yennefer. A Grain of Truth, The Lesser Evil and The Last Wish were the standout stories. This series started in 1993, and although there are definitely some issues with misogyny and some brief ableism and fatphobia, I feel like for its time it was no where near as bad as other media at its time. There are some moments where I felt like “really? :/“ but overall I was able to get through the book without issue but I can totally understand some people not being comfortable with it though. I will say, the brief time in which we saw female characters like Yennefer and Calanthe, they are fully fleshed out and interesting characters on their own. Overall, I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
