Review: The Blood of Elves

The Blood of Elves by Andrzej Sapkowski
My rating:  3 of 5 stars

This book delves deeper into the intertwined journey of Geralt and Ciri, offering a blend of humor and despair as Geralt, a master with his sword, finds himself thrust into an unexpected parental role. Yet, as the narrative leans more towards Ciri's perspective, Geralt's presence becomes somewhat diminished.

Additionally, "Baptism of Fire" marks the beginning of the budding relationship between Yennefer and Ciri, adding further complexity to the storyline. The pacing is slower compared to other entries, it doesn't compel readers to frantically turn pages. Nevertheless, hopefully, the world-building and character development lay a solid foundation for what lies ahead in the series.
