Sword of Destiny features a handful of main characters from the series who become more fleshed out as there presence recurs. It was solely about a certain adventure at one end of the world and then another a thousand miles away. In the first book, apart from a couple of brief interludes, there were no recurring characters. He travels around the world to where his peculiar killing and magic techniques are needed to tackle a problem and individuals will hire him. The Last Wish featured mostly isolated stories with the Witcher tackling a certain monstrosity for a set payment. Although you can start the series with Blood of Elves which is where the full-length novels commence, I can't recommend enough that even though a handful of these short stories are hit-and-miss, that they will add considerable depth to the future narrative arcs. Much like The Last Wish before, Sword of Destiny is a collection of short stories following a talented witcher called Geralt of Rivia.
