Andrzej Sapkowski Witcher Series Collection 8 Books Set Season of Storms Inc The Last Wish - Netflix

The Witcher Series by Andrzej Sapkowski brings together eight books in a single collection, presented with a new cover design. Centred on Geralt of Rivia, a Witcher trained to hunt monsters created with magic, the series explores a world where the boundaries between good and evil are rarely clear, and where conflict between humans and other races threatens fragile peace.

Across the set, Geralt is drawn into events surrounding Ciri, a child of prophecy pursued for her power, as war, intrigue and rebellion spread. The collection also includes stand-alone adventures set in the same world, alongside stories that introduce Geralt’s role and the moral complexity behind the fairy-tale truths he encounters. The Last Wish is translated by Danusia Stok, and the series is noted as an inspiration for the Witcher video games and a major Netflix show.

Synopses

Blood of Elves

After more than a century of relative peace, humans, dwarves, gnomes and elves are once again at war. Ciri, a child of prophecy and surviving heiress of a bloody revolution, is hunted for abilities that could change the world. As the threat of conflict grows, Geralt must keep her safe from those seeking her power.

Time of Contempt

Kings and armies manoeuvre as fear of invasion and rivalry spreads across borders. Intrigue, dissent and rebellion take hold, while elves and other races clash with humans and each other. Against this backdrop, Geralt and Yennefer attempt to protect Ciri, the orphaned heir sought by all sides.

Baptism of Fire

A coup shatters the Wizards Guild, leaving Geralt seriously injured as war rages across the lands. With the future of magic under threat, surviving sorcerers are determined to defend it. Meanwhile, Ciri, the vanished heiress to the throne of Cintra, is rumoured to be in the Nilfgaard court, preparing to marry the Emperor.

The Tower of the Swallow

With the world at war, Ciri has disappeared and is hunted by allies and enemies alike. Living under the guise of a petty bandit, she experiences freedom for the first time, even as the net tightens around her. Geralt gathers companions to rescue her, while mercenaries close in and the tower of the swallow awaits.

The Lady of the Lake

After escaping through a portal in the Tower of the Swallow, Ciri finds herself in a different world, among the Elves. Trapped without an obvious route home, she refuses to give in and searches for a way back to Geralt and his companions. Leo Bonhart, who chased, wounded and tortured her, remains on her trail.

Sword of Destiny

Geralt of Rivia is a Witcher whose training and magic make him a formidable fighter and assassin. He hunts the fiends that ravage the land and threaten the innocent, yet the world he moves through resists simple judgements. Not everything that looks monstrous is evil, and not everything fair is good.

Season of Storms

Set before Geralt becomes Ciri’s guardian, this stand-alone adventure follows him as a legendary swordsman in the world of the Witcher. Using magical signs, potions, and two swords of steel and silver, he faces a new challenge when he loses his weapons. The story features Geralt’s travels and battles, Dandelion’s misadventures, scheming sorcerers, and gathering storms across the world.

The Last Wish

This book introduces Geralt the Witcher, both revered and hated, as he holds the line against monsters plaguing humanity. Trained and empowered by magic, he hunts dangerous creatures, while recognising that appearances can deceive and fairy tales often contain truth. Translated by Danusia Stok, it is presented as an entry point to the Witcher world.
