I have spent a long time reading the witcher novels and to say this last book was a disappointment is an understatement. However, my favorite passages and chapters of all the witcher books came from this book. In general, I liked the writing and how some things were wrapped up but the fate of, almost, all beloved characters was just lousy. I also disliked that they introduced new characters and plot in this book, some even in the last 50 pages. It wasn't so bad that I couldn't read it but it was largely unsatisfying.
