[Ed. note: This story contains spoilers for The Witcher season 3, volume 1.]
Volume 1 of The Witcher’s third season has just arrived, but if you blitzed through Netflix’s latest offering, you know that it ends with a huge cliffhanger. Netflix broke up The Witcher season 3 into two parts, just as it did with another of its big television hits, Stranger Things.
