Where the earlier books set the scene, introduced our dramatic personae, and generally got the ball rolling, it is here that it starts to gain momentum. It will be helpful at this point in the story to start making a flowchart of different characters & their storylines. Also—despite Dianna Wynne Jones’ opinion about fantasyland maps—google the Witcher map that Netflix put out, it will be useful as everything starts to go into motion. And be sure to have Tower of Swallows on hand because you’re going to want to go straight on to the fourth book.
