The Witcher Boxed Set by Andrzej Sapkowski
Meet Geralt of Rivia - the Witcher - who holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in the bestselling series that inspired the Witcher video games and a major Netflix show. The Witcher's 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 Danusia Stok and David French. Andrzej Sapkowski, winner of the World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement award, started an international phenomenon with his Witcher series. This boxed set contains all eight books: THE LAST WISH, SWORD OF DESTINY, BLOOD OF ELVES, TIME OF CONTEMPT, BAPTISM OF FIRE, THE TOWER OF THE SWALLOW, THE LADY OF THE LAKE, SEASON OF STORMS.
Like Mieville and Gaiman, Sapkowski takes the old and makes it new - FOUNDATIONAn incredibly nuanced, well-articulated novel, imbued with a self-assured command of description and brimming with Eastern European folklore - Starburst on Time of ContemptDelightfully dry humour, mythology brimming with radical creatures and a group of interesting characters - Fantasy Book ReviewOne of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read - Nerds of a FeatherThere's lots of imagination on show, the writing has a strong voice, and the Witcher is an entertaining character - Mark Lawrence
