Geralt the Witcher - revered and hated - holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in the bestselling series that inspired the hit Witcher Netflix show and video games.

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 David French.

Andrzej Sapkowski, winner of the World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement award, started an international phenomenon with his Witcher series. In this second collection of short stories, following the adventures of the hit collection The Last Wish, join Geralt as he battles monsters, demons and prejudices alike . . .©1993 Andrzej Sapkowski Dragons & Mythical Creatures Fantasy Fiction Magic Thought-Provoking Video Game

Bit more of a focus on the romance which was a distraction for me personally. However when Gerald started plying his trade and the link with Ciri it showed top form.

Great story when the romance doesn't detract

Engaging and suspenseful. Written with enough pull to keep one interested and cultivate a relationship with the various characters! The reader is consistent and does a great job of bringing the characters to life. Will listen to this again in the near future!

An Enthralling Listen! Wonderful Work!
