Reply to comment by [deleted] in The Witcher by Andrez Sapkowski is an underrated masterpiece. by [deleted]

I've read all of the novels and short stories. Apparently they are better in Polish?

If you read them, go in with low expectations and you might enjoy them? I found them scattered and not very compelling.

On the other hand, the Witcher 3 game is a masterpiece.

I loved the short stories and The Witcher games (all three), so I might just need to go in with low expectations indeed and give a chance for the novels to sweep me away 😊

Everyone has different tastes! There's a YouTuber that I like who is obsessed with them and does some interesting analysis of them as well. The Proper Bird has a great voice and a nice take on things.
