![]() Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri in particular are well-rounded and nuanced, with flaws and motivations that make them compelling and relatable. One of the strengths of the Witcher series is its complex characters and their relationships. These novels further develop Geralt’s story, as well as those of other important characters such as Yennefer, a powerful sorceress, and Ciri, a young girl with magical abilities who becomes crucial to the fate of the world. The series then continued with five novels: “Blood of Elves”, “Time of Contempt”, “Baptism of Fire”, “The Tower of Swallows”, and “Lady of the Lake”. The stories often subvert common fantasy tropes, with Geralt navigating moral ambiguity and gray areas rather than always being a clear hero or villain. These stories introduced Geralt and established the world he inhabited, as well as the characters and creatures that populate it. The series began with two collections of short stories: “The Witcher” (also known as “The Last Wish”) and “Sword of Destiny”. The books are set in a medieval-inspired world, where humans, elves, dwarves, and other creatures coexist but often struggle for power and survival. The series follows the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a Witcher – a skilled monster hunter – in a world filled with magic, political intrigue, and danger. “The Witcher” (or “Wiedźmin” in Polish) is a series of books by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski that has become a phenomenon in the fantasy genre. ![]()
