These short stories are not necessary. I honestly think I would have had a better reading experience if I saved these till after I finished the main Witcher series. I would have DNF'd the book if it wasn't for the audiobook on 2x. Anyway, just skip the both “The Last Wish” and “Sword of Destiny” and read the main series.
This hurt my feelings.. specifically stories; The Husband and Wife and The Sisters. I cried my way through those two short stories. I'm glad this had a positive ending because my heart is so heavy right now.
Final rating: 3.5 stars ✨
I was surprised by how much I actually enjoyed reading this. I do not like urban fantasy and tend to slog my way through them, but not this one. The mystery. The setting. The characters. I ate up every second of this!!
Autumn is definitely the right time of year for Ninth House to be read with the ghosts and the eeriness of New Haven, it was the perfect setting to enjoy this read.
Personally, I'm quite unsure if I will continue or not with the series. I think if I find a used copy of Hell Bent then I'd read it but I'm not desperate to continue. The set up was nicely done and I can see the pull to continue. In the end, this was enjoyable and well crafted, definitely read this in October/November for the best vibes. I would recommend reading Ninth House but please check trigger warnings because oh boy were there some surprises
This was creepy then weird and I just wasn't expecting any of what happened to have happened..
I wish I had read this when I was a freshman/ sophomore in high school. It would've been my absolute favorite.
