The main story of Geralt, Ciri, & Yenefer wraps up in the bittersweet 7th book out of the 8 in the series. The storylines of war in Nilfgaard, Geralt’s search for Ciri, Vilgefortz’s plans, and more all end in this exciting finale.
I enjoyed this final story and I think it worked well to tie up all the many threads & characters Sapkowski introduced throughout his books. It ends with some characters deaths, some getting to live happily, and some ending in more unusually mysterious situations. Some of the character choices seemed off and I wish some events happened differently, but overall I was fairly happy with the ending.
The Last Wish - 4.5/5
Sword of Destiny - 4.5/5
Blood of Elves - 4/5
Time of Contempt - 4.5/5
Baptism of Fire - 3.5/5
Tower of the Swallow - 4/5
The Lady of the Lake - 4/5
Season of Storms - 4.5/5
