If you're one of those who played the games and you're ok with Ciri been a Witcheress, then this is the book for you.

The story is really simple and easy to dive into, its basically a omage to the first(and the best) scene in the first book the "Last Wish".

While I'm excited to find another Witcher series in kindle unlimited, I am facing the same problem with any other Witcher book, it is way too short and I keep on changing books too frequently. It should have been bundled in a single book since the entire series is available in unlimited anyways.

Extremely quick read. I'm not really sure about the whole Ciri being a Witcher thing but ok. Basically, they save this girl from a troll, are on their way to kill a striga, and take baths.

I haven't played the games, though I enjoyed the Netflix show. From what I have seen of the new game, this seems to fit, what with Ciri being older and a Witcher.

It's definitely a good comic? graphic novel? I think it could have been combined with the others in the series to create an entire volume. Definitely short.

The Witcher comics have always had excellent art and storytelling. The use of colors is fantastic, the inking is well done.

Unlike Fox Children and House of Glass, Curse of Crows is best read after having played the Witcher 3 and read The Last Wish. The other two comic series are fine as stand alones, but Curse of Crows expects you to have at least a basic understanding of the Witcher universe.

All in all, it's a quick and enjoyable read.

A Good Read

So the story is pretty simplistic and easy to follow. It's written by some of the story creators from "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" game. If this series turns out anything like the game, this will be great.

What’s not to love!

I’ve never read these “comic” style books but I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. If you enjoy the witcher this is a good book for you.
