Ciri's Witcher training in Netflix's Kaer Morhen

Ciri's training is done differently in the show than in the book. These differences include other witchers, who urge her to attempt training which she wasn't yet ready for. The show also highlights her disobedience towards Geralt and at times she makes a great show out of ignoring his orders.

While watching the series, I also got the impression that everything happened too fast for Ciri to learn to use her skills effectively in practice. Perhaps it's a good thing, then, that her role mostly boiled down to provoking the monsters that Geralt was then supposed to kill. Or running away from them.

Freya Allan expressed Ciri's stubbornness and determination very well. However, she seems a little more stiff at the same time. She's more of a princess trying to be a witcher rather than a witcher with royal roots, because she doesn't like it when things don't go her way. Was Ciri like this in the books? This is a subjective matter, nevertheless, Allan's concept may turn out to be a hit, if the creators consistently let her build upon this idea for the role in subsequent seasons.
