Well, we have to keep in mind that Geralt and all the others are basically searching for Ciri most of the time! So they often split up and stuff. And well Ciri is on the Run the whole time, so they all get into different little stories while they are still on their main path. Maybe that's why you have the feeling that there is not much progression!
I mean i kinda agree, that he maybe got lost in some moments. But he still followed a red line!
And like i said already...The Witcher is no fairy tail where everything works fine with happy endings, and reunions and so on...it is a dirty and dark world. Many characters die in the books, Ciri get's from one bad situation into another, and Geralt and Yen are also constantly under pressure and everything. So i can imagine that Sapkowski intentionally wrote his books like that!
I like Lord of the Rings very much, but in comparison to The Witcher, LotR was always too "happy" and "fairy tail" in my Opinion.
The Witcher is just a more "realistic" fantasy saga for me.
