Read 4 times. Last read November 19, 2019 to November 30, 2019.
And again, I am at this point, where of course I can make a return, but something is definitely over. And as every time I'm sad because, as Ciri used to say, it's just not fair. It's over. But the war is not over, the evil is not gone and it will never be, but there will be no Witcher to fight it. Because that world didn't deserve that Witcher. Will Ciri come back to save it? I don't think so. The question remains unanswered. For you to guess.
While I understand some critics I can't do nothing else but love the book, even more than before. Love the series, love the characters. Even though I think that it's unfair (again!) that Sapkowski went full g.r.r.martin on some of them... Mind you, before it was cool.
Happy to have read it again. Till next time, Witcher! <3

OMG haha! Have a nice purchase, I guess???? xDGalvojau bus koks nors witcher pendant su šviečiančiomis akimis ar kas nors pan. xD
Nei nustebinsi tave nei ką :D Tokius lobius traukiu, o čia ponia šviečiančių akių nori!
Nu ne, kodėl, įspūdinga ir tokie... randai gražus... xD
Randai.....? Sorry, ne ten žiūrėjau :D
O kur tu žiūrėjai? Ir išvis, ką tu ten googlinai, a??? xD
Į Geralto amuletą :P Norėjau ko nors su Witčeriu ir pigaus, ir gavau ką gavau........
:DNa, nieko, bus tau ir pigu, ir su Witcheriu - jau už 19 dienų!
Jau braukau dienas :D (ir ieškau nuostabių meno kūrinių, žinoma)

KUR RADAI TOKĮ???????? WAAAAAAAAANT!!!!!! :DD
Great review Caro! I will read these some time in the near future. I'm sure you are aware there are very, very good Witcher video games with excellent stories.

Yeah, I'm very much aware, but I'm not into gaming, alas.
Not trying to change your mind, but Witcher 3 has a "story mode", where it becomes more interactive fiction than gaming. That is how I played it, and the story really is quite good. It is a book in a different format.
I will second Mr. Windup Bird. CARO, GO PLAY THE GAME! :D The Witcher 3 is one of the best games I have ever played, and I don't play shi** :D If you are not into gaming, you will be into The Wicther 3. Simply amazeballs. I am sure if you tried - we would see you in 2021, since you would be busy crafting your armour, playing Gwent, and looking for old lady's pan and goat (yes, there is such a quest).

But it will be a glorious year (with pans, goats and all other awesome stuff). Some people always talk about deleting their memory for playing or reading or seeing great stuff again, so I would gladly play The Wicher 3 thousand time :D
You can follow the main story in much less time, but like Sad said, you will want to explore everything. It's very immersive.
And you have Roach, a great horse, to speed things up!
I will also say I am not "into gaming", per sey. Occasionally there is an original work with no text analog, and the only way to experience the story is to play. :) Most people associate gaming with 13 year old boys screaming obscenities on Discord, but it is not that. :)
Guys, I really do understand the fun and for example, I can't wait for FFVII remake just because I had so much fun playing it years ago (for like 5-6 times???) and I want to at least have a peek. But I'm not into gaming ATM. Books are in the first place! :)
Well said Caro! TBH I have not played a game since my son moved to live with his mom a year ago. It was something we had in common to talk about, but I'm much happier spending the time reading. :)
*plays The Long Dark, Firewatch, Dreamfall, Dragon Age like there is no tomorrow WHILE reading a ton of books* Le gasp! XD
I did love Dragon Age Origins! And Deus Ex Human Revolution. Bioshock Infinite, Fallout New Vegas, Mass Effect 2... I played Portal 1 & 2 while going through a divorce and fell in love with a video game security system (the cake is a lie). Nearly had a nervous breakdown when I discovered there was no Half-Life 3. Actually had a nervous breakdown when Deus Ex Mankind Divided was a flop. . :)
Dragon Age is awesome! Also played Inquisition and II, but Origins is the best. Portal is one of the best games too. My father played it too, and I remember when he was nearing the end of the first game, and asked: "When I will get the real gun?" XD Now every time I eat cake, I remember it... Can't wait for Metro 2077.

Wanna hear about the games I DNF? :D
LOL no no no please spare me :P :D
Sure, but my DNF book list is more impressive :D
And it should have its place in the national heritage list! :D
Ok Caro, Sad, time to fess up. Favorite books?
If you had to pick just one.
Daaaaamn... Witch body part do you like the most? Like, the little finger of your feet seems pretty unimportant, but try connecting it with a chair or a table at night and you will be awarded with the knowledge of importance. So, it's impossible to choose the one :D
No desert island for you eh? :) Fair enough.

Wait... You have fingers on your feet? In that case, I'll choose to abandon my prehensile tail. :)
Toes! It's toes! :D English is not my mother-tongue, so sometimes I say weird or mutated things :D
P.s Desert island situation - just pack Kindle :D It can "carry" a "few" books.
Haha I was just kidding you Sad. I can't speak a word of Lithuanian, so you are WAY ahead of me! Your English is fantastic.
