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

I had almost the exact opposite reaction. I’ve never been more disappointed in a series than the Witcher. The short stories are definitely the better than the whole novels.

Geralt is the most interesting character in the series, but he does almost nothing. The majority of his chapters are him just traveling from place to place. And we never get anything deeper than that. Some of the political intrigue is interesting, but it’s not nearly enough.
