Critics Review
Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodge podge of fantasy, intellectual discourse, and dry humour. Recommended * Time Magazine *
Geralt is one of the great characters in all of fantasy. Whether you’re coming from the games, TV show, or are simply new to the Witcher universe - these books are absolutely worth the read * James Islington, author of The Will of the Many *
This is a series you can sink your teeth into * BuzzFeed News *
Like Mieville and Gaiman, [Sapkowski] takes the old and makes it new … [a] fresh take on genre fantasy * Foundation *
Delightful, intense, irreverent, and compelling … you have to read The Witcher books because they are rife with all of the elements that make you love fiction, and especially fantasy, in the first place … In a word, The Witcher delivers * Hypable *
One of the best and most interesting fantasy series I’ve ever read * Nerds of a Feather *
