Audiobook Review
Because of everything that has been happening in the war, the audiences would find this book to be very fast paced. Nevertheless, the good thing is that most of the book has been focused on Geralt’s efforts and journey of finding Ciri. He has been a sole player, but for this mission, he even seeks the help of others and forms a brotherhood.
The book is sometimes confusing as to who is fighting who, but that is bound to happen when there are so many parties involved. Amidst all this, the point to take away is that comradery beats everything and Geralt and his group emerge successful in their quest.
The character development has been wonderful, just like all the other installments in the Witcher series. I particularly loved the development and progression of relationships in this book.
Narrator
Peter Kenny, who is an award-winning narrator from England, did a fantastic job on this book. His delivery was so sublime and captivating that it would keep you hooked.
