Very enjoyable. Adventures with swords, magic and monsters. I didnt know about the books or game, but found no problem getting into it perhaps because I've read plenty of fantasy books. There is a dark humour throughout as well as excellent fighting choreography and a belief in "goodness" that all set it apart from GOT. The time switching was a surprise, because I'm used to being spoon fed information on TV. However, in contrast to many reviewers I liked the feeling of revelation when I matched time-lines, or when scenes were replayed in later episodes from the perspective of other characters. The negatives? only 8 episodes, unclear mechanics behind magical power, Ciri's story was too passive, maybe too little info on Nilfgaard, the Elven ears looked a little sad, the cliffhanger ending (but what else would you expect?!). Suspend belief, dont think too deeply, and enjoy the ride ;-)
