I wasn't too sure about the first couple stories, but after that, I really got into it. As intricate and beautiful as one of the Witcher's potions, it's really all about the alchemy between dark European fairy tale, the Witcher world, and the inextricably bonded core cast.

These stories really shine because they get that balance. They have the adventures against man and monsters, but also wax philosophic about relationships and destiny.

And the gestalt of these individual stories, just amazing. Man, what an ending this one had.

"It's like they said! Geralt! it's like they said! Am I your destiny? Say it! Am I your destiny?"

"You're much more than that, Ciri. Much more."

Fuck. Too many feels in these past two audiobooks.
