Publisher's Summary

Geralt the Witcher - revered and hated - holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in the best-selling 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....

Great story, Peter Kenny is the best!

I'm stunned how good these are and Peter Kenny is a fantastic narrator. Iain M. Banks and Andrzej Sapkowski: good times!

Addictive series

I was worried I'd be disappointed after reading the 1st in the Witcher series but it only gets better. Fantastic narration and character development.
