The stories are wonderfully created, with some nice takes on old fairy tales.
The majority of the “monsters” he actually winds up slaying in the book are human beings, which come off as being the largest monsters of all (there’s a certain tale in this collection where that, as a matter of fact, seems to be the overriding lesson). The Geralt of guides is much more cerebral than a lot of monster hunters in modern fiction (more so than in the video games, also), liking to cure them of their curses or attract their detects of reason, when able, as opposed to simply reducing them down. I truthfully want I had done that the other way around now, and also gotten into the books initially. Each publication is well worth the kept reading itself for any kind of strong Witcher fan, and also for any kind of basic fiction follower searching for a great collection to pick up, even if they don’t rather recognize the Witcherverse before diving in.I selected this up since I lately began playing the games.
That claimed, I’m glad once again that I began reading them -after- playing the games since or else they would not have actually held as much significance to me or made me laugh rather as much. There were numerous referrals to product from the books in the game themselves, as well as while I hadn’t previously comprehended them totally, the books quickly removed every little thing up concerning it, discussing them all in excellent or at the very least sufficient information. Given, I put a LOTS OF hours right into that game alone, not to mention it’s precursors, but to sit back and also review the original material in which it was based off of – that was fantastic in more ways that I can describe. I acquired as well as began checking out the Witcher books shortly after defeating the Witcher 3 computer game, and to be one hundred percent honet, I rejoice that I had inadvertently wait till after I had triumphed.
