A collection of over 300 pages of action, mystery, and suspense with Geralt of Rivia in three standalone stories. In Of Flesh and Flame, Dandelion the bard gets Geralt transported to a faraway land, plagued by dark forces. In Fading Memories, Geralt is hired by the mayoress of a small town where an unusual pack of foglets attacks children, but something feels off about this new threat. In Witch’s Lament, a witch burned at the stake haunts Geralt, sending him an ominous warning. And in a bonus story, a young nekker takes an unpredictable journey through the woods. Collects The Witcher: Of Flesh and Flame #1–#4, The Witcher: Fading Memories #1–#4, The Witcher: Witch’s Lament #1–#4, and the Free Comic Book Day 2021 short story “The Witcher: Once Upon a Time in the Woods,” and features a cover gallery, expanded sketchbook section, and more!

I enjoyed the stories collected in Omnibus 2 slightly more than those in Omnibus 1. There's the same violence (often focussed at women), gore, sex and swearing as in the first collection, but the stories seem a little more thoughtful and, within the brutal world of the narrative, a bit more acknowledgement that people are inclined to help/heal each other if given the opportunity.
CW in comment.

These stories perfectly capture the melancholy and often tragic tone of many of the side quests in the game. Although they are all stand-alone episodes, these stories revolve around how Geralt interprets the world.
