What We Think

In a breath of non-woke fresh air, Sapkowski’s novel delivers nuanced characters, avoids ideological grandstanding, and explores human nature with grit. This one stands strong against fashionable wokeness, fantasy for grown-ups, not lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The book keeps its narrative focus on engaging fantasy storytelling, with character development grounded in personal motivations and realistic flaws. Identity factors exist within the context of Sapkowski’s world, not shoehorned ideology or tokenism. Forced representation and unrealistic perfection are nowhere to be found.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional elements like religion, family, and morality are complex but present. While some gender roles are challenged, it serves the story’s realism and complexity rather than ideology. Classic virtues and hard choices are explored without overt cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Diverse viewpoints, often clashing, conflicted, and morally ambiguous, form the heart of Sapkowski’s work. There is no ideological echo chamber; every side gets its flaws, strengths, and human struggles. The book never resorts to one-dimensional villainization of traditional perspectives.
