The Time of Contempt

Ciri is the child of prophesy, foretold to have the power to change the world, for good or for evil. And she's finally on her way to the magical college on Thanedd Island to learn how to master her powers. Accompanied by the powerful enchantress Yennefer, the journey should be a simple one, but they receive word that they are being followed and shortly afterwards Ciri is mistaken for a student and arrested. Separated from Yennefer and thrown on her own resources, Ciri turns to Geralt, a powerful witcher, for aid...and takes the first steps along a path which will lead to revolution...

Blood of Elves

For more than a hundred years humans, dwarves, gnomes and elves lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, and now the races fight each other once again. In this tumultuous time a child is born: Ciri. She has strange powers and a stranger destiny, for a prophesy names her as one with the power to change the world, for good or for evil. The witcher Geralt has taken Ciri to relative safety, but it soon becomes clear that Ciri is not like the other witchers. As the threat of war hangs over the land, Geralt and Ciri are pursued by someone who understands exactly what the prophesy means—and exactly what Ciri's power could do. This time Geralt may have met his match.

Sword of Destiny

Geralt is a witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. His targets are the deadly monsters which ravage the land and attack the innocent. He roams the country seeking work, but comes to realize that while some of his quarry are unremittingly vile, others are the victims of sin, evil or simple naivety. In this collection of short stories, following the adventures of the hit collection The Last Wish, join Geralt and his companions as they battle monsters, demons and prejudices alike...

The Last Wish

Geralt was always going to stand out, with his white hair and piercing eyes, his cynicism and lack of respect for authority...but he is far more than his striking appearance. He is a witcher, with powers that make him a brilliant fighter and merciless assassin—and his targets are the vile fiends that ravage the land. As guardian of the innocent, Geralt meets incestuous kings with undead daughters, vengeful djinns, shrieking harpies, lovelorn vampires and despondent ghouls. Many are pernicious, some are wicked, and none are quite as they appear.
