About this ebook
The Witcher, Geralt of Rivia, holds the fate of the world in his hands in the New York Times bestselling first novel in the Witcher series that inspired the Netflix show and video games.
NAMED ONE OF FORBES' GREATEST BOOK SERIES OF ALL TIME 2024
For more than a hundred years, humans, dwarves, gnomes and elves lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, the uneasy peace is over and now the races are fighting once again - killing their own kind and each other.
Into this tumultuous time is born a child of prophecy, Ciri, surviving heiress of a bloody revolution, whose strange abilities can change the world - for good, or for evil...
As the threat of war hangs over the land, Geralt the Witcher must protect Ciri from those who are hunting the child for her destructive power.
But this time, Geralt may have met his match.
Translated by Danusia Stok.

The book is significantly gripping. I must admit that the video games and the Netflix show have considerably enhanced the appeal of Geralt and Ciri's story. However, if you've read the three short-story bundles preceding the 'Blood of Elves', you are in for a storytelling delight when you start reading this one. Hoping to extract as much euphoric utility from the next book.

I often could not completely follow and understand what was going on. To me it seemed like important parts where left out, which you had to understand are happening without them being mentioned.

From the first to the last book of this saga I could not stop reading! If you like the game and want to get the story, you should not hesitate. Masterpiece!

About the author
Andrzej Sapkowski was born in 1948 in Poland. He studied economy and business, but the success of his fantasy cycle about the Witcher Geralt of Rivia turned him into a bestselling writer and he is now one of Poland's most famous and successful authors, selling more in his own country than Stephen King or Michael Crichton.
