![]() ![]() Everything felt more random and fragmented in Sword of Destiny. In The Last Wish, in the present time frame, we have Geralt recovering, and the content told in this time frame chapters reflects the short story we will get to read. It is six short stories put into this book. Unlike The Last Wish, there doesn’t seem to be a coherent sense of continuity between the stories contained in this collection. “There is never a second opportunity to make a first impression.” However, I felt so mixed about this collection of short stories. But still, I expected more out of it because I enjoyed reading The Last Wish, and of course, I love the video games adaptation so much. ![]() I fully understand that technically this is Sapkowski’s first published collection of stories in The Witcher Saga even though it chronologically takes place after The Last Wish. I have heard many mixed things regarding the main novels of the series, especially in its ending, but tons of praises seem to have been given to the first two collections of short stories. I’ll be lying if I say I’m not worried about how I’ll fare with the series after reading Sword of Destiny. ![]() Sword of Destiny is a huge step down from The Last Wish. Genre: Fantasy, Epic Fantasy, High Fantasy ![]()
