Introducing Geralt the Witcher - revered and hated - who holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in the bestselling series that inspired the Witcher video games and a major Netflix show.
NAMED ONE OF FORBES' GREATEST BOOK SERIES OF ALL TIME 2024
Geralt of Rivia is a Witcher, a man whose magic powers and lifelong training have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin.
Yet he is no ordinary killer: he hunts the vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent.
But not everything monstrous-looking is evil; not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.
Translated by Danusia Stok.

-
The third in the Witcher saga is an incredibly nuanced, well-articulated novel, imbued with a self-assured command of description and brimming with Eastern European folklore - Starburst on Time of ContemptLike a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodge podge of fantasy, intellectual discourse and dry humour. Recommended - Time MagazineDelightfully dry humour, mythology brimming with radical creatures and a group of interesting characters, The Last Wish is a great introduction to this universe - Fantasy Book ReviewOne of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read - Nerds of a FeatherThere's lots of imagination on show, the writing has a strong voice, and the Witcher is an entertaining character - Mark Lawrence
