OUR REVIEW

This is the one you should read first. If you start with Sword of Destiny – which came out before The Last Wish in the original Polish edition – or with Blood of Elves – which is Volume 1 in the 5-volume Witcher saga – you’re going to be a bit lost! Granted, it’s a bit confusing, but fortunately, you’ve come to the right place. Here at the official on-line Sapkowski bookstore, we’re here to help! This volume will introduce you to the character who is beloved by millions of readers: Geralt, the mutant witcher, a bounty hunter who kills monsters for money. His world is a dark one, but it that has its funny moments, too: this saga plays fast and loose with the codes of fantasy and magic. Wizards don’t necessarily wear pointy hats, and princesses can be pains in the neck! And if you don’t want to read this whole volume in one fell swoop, you’re in luck: it’s divided into separate stories!

Description:
Geralt is a witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. Yet he is no ordinary murderer: his targets are the multifarious monsters and vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent.

He roams the country seeking assignments, but gradually comes to realise that while some of his quarry are unremittingly vile, vicious grotesques, others are the victims of sin, evil or simple naivety.
