The Witcher, Vol. 2: Fox Children

mild spoilers, you've been warned

yeah uh... the next book better explain what the hell all of that was, because you can't just have an entire war progress and have it covered in a chapter via dialogue

but otherwise, i enjoyed myself and i'm really looking forward to the next book. lots of fun yennefer & geralt moments in this book, and a lot of political navigation & trying to finally get to ciri's role in everything. that being said, i didn't appreciate the aforementioned chapter where an entire progression of the war was glossed over in a dialogue and would have rather have read about that for another 100 pages than be left with the bare minimum information to go off of (and even then, it didn't even seem that relevant to the rest of the book?)
