Well its a cute short story that does set up the two protagonists well. Am not sure it does enough for you to consider reading the Theft of Swords which would be a really sad miss:-). Just start with the first book is my recommendation.
The perfect way to dip your toes into the series and get hooked on Hadrian and Royce’s escapades.
Sullivan’s The Viscount and the Witch is a delightful bite-sized tale that perfectly captures the charm and wit of his Riyria universe. A short story, it offers a fun introduction to Hadrian and Royce, showing their dynamic blending of humor, banter, and developing camaraderie. Even in its brevity, the story feels complete, with a clever plot and an amusing twist that keeps the tone light and engaging and left me wanting more.
Sullivan’s mastery of character-driven storytelling really shows here , as Hadrian and Royce's personalities leap off the page, drawing readers into the world. Longtime fan or a newcomer, this story offers a fun glimpse into the adventures of Riyria without requiring having read other books in the series.
Quick paced and endearing , The Viscount and the Witch is a fantastic appetizer for the Riyria Chronicles and Revelations.
