* FairForItsDay: This book features the first gender non-conforming character in the series, the mercenary Neratin Ceka. Neratin and his colleague Kenna serve as TokenGoodTeammate for their hansa, and while his gender expression is largely treated as a quirk, nobody in the narrative disciminates against him for it. Although he doesn't survive the novel it's difficult to argue it's a case of BuryYourGays given the sheer indiscriminate violence of this book's last act.

* {{TheScrappy}}: Angouleme is just plain annoying with her antics and JiveTurkey speaking pattern. She serves absolutely no role in the plot whatsoever and yet is dragged all the way to the climax in the following book solely because she slightly resembles Ciri to Geralt.

How much did people root for him? After Geralt and Ciri, he was the biggest subject of fanfiction back in the haydays of the saga. And '''without''' going into DracoInLeatherPants territory.

* CatharsisFactor: Seeing the Rats get curb-stomped by Bonhart is ''immensely'' satisfying, given their [[AssholeVictims loathsome actions]] every time they've shown up. [[JerkassWoobie Ciri's reaction]] might be the only reason to feel badly about their deaths.

* {{Narm}}: The CurbStompBattle between Ciri and Stefan Skellen's goons in the end of the book can come as such in original Polish. The setup involves almost twenty [[EliteMooks experienced]] [[HiredGuns mercs]] fighting against a single teenage girl. On a frozen lake. In the mist. While she is skating around, killing them off one by one. Normally that's a CrowningMomentOfAwesome, but the way it's written it's hard to be taken as serious as it clearly insists to be. When it reaches to [[{{Fingore}} Rience's fingers being skated away]] while he tries to hold on the surface of broken ice, most readers are reduced into laughing heap, while the book is dead-serious and ''extremely'' pompous.
