Re: The Witcher TV series
I think it looks pretty decent so far. It’s clearly doing the ‘saga’ novels as the plot, because I recognise a lot of the events in that trailer The books start with two volumes of short stories before getting into a larger multi-novel spanning plot, it’s basically Ciri’s origin story.
I imagine it’d been very tempting to match the aesthetic of the games, so I’m pleased that they haven’t totally gone that way.
(One of the largest aspect in the games, the whole ‘silver sword for monsters, steel for humans’ hasn’t even come up in the books yet, though I’ve still got two more to go)

Not sure if they want, or to be more precise if Sapkowski wants it. Supposedly he's a consultant on the show so i think he has something to say about it.
Im gonna put it in spoiler just in case but its from both short stories so i assume you already read those and just missed those obscure descriptions And i only dont spoil any major hook, just a summary of what is said about the swords

Re: The Witcher TV series
It was a long time ago when I read the shorts, so it's possible I missed that. Could also be the English translation loses it, or changes the emphasis or otherwise makes it less obvious.
I’m not far into Lady of the Lake now and the framing device is kinda weird... I liked the experimental framing in the previous novel, but this one isn’t quite grabbing me yet.
