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!
