One of the things I love about this series is the different perspectives that Sapkowski chooses to tell the story from. In this book there are several different perspectives which almost makes the book read as a collection of interwoven short stories. It's very clever and engaging but I did find it disorienting the first time.
It's also the most gruesome novel in the series

5.0

Auch dieses Buch der Hexerreihe führt fort, was die Vorgänger geschaffen haben. Die Komplexität der Charaktere und wie sich alle Plotstränge in der Welt zusammenfügen sind unsagbar beeindruckend. 
Vysogota habe ich als neu eingeführten Charakter sehr lieb gewonnen und habe die Szenen mit ihm sehr genossen.
