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! 

Details: Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Last Wish introduced the world to the iconic monster hunter Geralt of Rivia; his beloved ward and the prophesied savior of the world, Ciri; and his ally and true love, the powerful sorceress Yennefer—and they took the world by storm. Now, experience the world of the Witcher like never before with this stunning deluxe hardcover edition of the story collection that started it all, featuring a beautiful new cover and eight gorgeous interior illustrations by a range of award-winning artists.


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 hunter.

Yet he is no ordinary killer. Both revered and hated, he seeks out the vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent, holding the line against the monsters that plague the world.

But not everything monstrous-looking is evil; not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.

Featuring illustrations by: Tommy Arnold, Kiri Østergaard Leonard, Bruce Brenneise, Jeremy Wilson, Jen Bartel, Allen Williams, Martina Fačková, and Winona Nelson
