I actually bought "Blood of Elves" back in 2012 without knowing it had been turned into a video game, but it went to the bottom of the reading pile and hasn't resurfaced yet. I will get to it at some point, haha.

One year before the release of Blod of Elves there's been a collection of shorter witcher stories released, named The Last Wish, and I think it's a much better place to start reading if you ask me

I was expecting to be blown away by all of the positive suggestions I'd been given, and was sorely disappointed.
I was equally upset with Harry Potter when I finally read it two year back.
solution if you can do that, but it makes for an incredibly stale story.

Well that's a reason I rarely follow/believe the hype. I read Eragon and Harry Potter knowing basically nothing about it before

I'm a little biased, however, because I'm not a huge fan of magic. I like fantasy, but more often than not I find authors having designed far too convoluted (or convenient) magic systems.

Well, true, magic is alawys a convenient plot device. That's one of its main purposes, I'd say
