Eternal Fire ~ The third short story was fairly basic but made up for that in world building. For those familiar with the Witcher 3 it shows the origins for Dudu, Vivaldi and the free city of Novigrad. Introducing more characters and the Doppler race into the world of the Witcher is great for the Witcher universe.

A Shard of Ice - Definitely my favourite short story within the novel so far. It does a fantastic job fleshing out the relationship between Geralt and Yennefer. Geralt, and other witchers, are often stigmatised as heartless killers due to their dulled emotions. But this story contradicts all these stereotypes as Geralt clearly cares heavily for Yen.

The Bounds of Reason ~ Very good short story to begin the collection with, thoroughly enjoyed how it subverted the expectation of one of the characters true identities.
