I love the games and love the books. The TV series is based on the books, but the producers should have not done Season 1 based on the first (and some of the second) book. Books 1 and 2 are essentially just a jumble of short stories and were written before the main story kicks in (the main story starts in book 3) and as such the first season was very up and down and lacked cohesion. This put many people off which is a real shame as Season 2 really kicks in with the main story hitting home and Season 2 is excellent. That is not to say Season 1 was bad as it was also very good. But people unfamiliar with the Books would have struggled to know the multiple timelines and the short story episodes. Just feel the Series could be so much more successful had they left Books 1 and 2 alone.

But overall I am loving the Witcher so far. Bring on the Wild Hunt.
