3.5 May up to 4 after I get some distance. I really enjoyed all the stories. I'm just bummed it took me this long to read it all. And that was all my procrastination and other stuff. I am loving the Ciri/child of destiny storyline. I also realized at the end during one of Geralt's hallucinations that I really don't like Yennifer. The relationship feels unnecessary, she is too wishy-washy for me and throwing in the fact their are broad hints about magic being involved makes me really dislike her. Though I begin to be aware that time may be passing a lot faster than I think. At least between this book and the last. I don't know. Dandelion continues to be my favorite. Most entertaining character by far. He and Geralt give off this buddy cop feel somehow. Lastly, this collection of stories seems more focused on morals, values, and beliefs. Of the Witches, Geralt's and the various people he comes in contact with.
