Al meer dan vijfhonderd jaar leven mensen, dwergen, gnomen, halflingen en elfen in vrede samen. Maar nu gebeuren er vreemde dingen, die de betrekkelijke rust tenietdoen: dwergen vermoorden hun soortgenoten en elfen nemen hun wapens op tegen elkaar én de mensen. Te midden van alle beroering wordt een kind geboren: Ciri, de kleindochter van koningin Calanthe, de Leeuwin van Cintra. De witchers hebben met smart gewacht op dit bijzondere kind. Ciri is namelijk de Vlam, het kind van de profetie dat de wereld voorgoed zal veranderen, ten goede of ten kwade.

Seit dem blutigen Überfall auf Cintra ist Ciri, die Thronerbin des Reiches, verschollen. Doch es gehen Gerüchte um, dass sie nicht tot ist, sondern von Geralt, dem Hexer, entführt und an einen geheimen Ort gebracht wurde. Und Geralt sieht sich mit heiklen Fragen konfrontiert. Hat Ciri wirklich magisches Potential? Oder ist sie nur das Medium einer bösen Macht? Der halbverfallene Stammsitz der Hexer wird zum Schauplatz einer großen Prüfung.

Reynevan is besieged on all sides and faces torture and execution if he makes any mistake in his quest to find his beloved, Jutta of Apolda. Aided by his companions—the ever-pragmatic Scharley and the mysterious being known as Samson Honeypot—his journey takes him all over the Bohemian realm. And Reynevan will need every ounce of his wit, intelligence and cunning if he is to succeed in his search. The political and religious alliances of the Hussite Wars are ever shifting, and the battle for dominance threatens to devour anyone who gets in their way.

After his adventures in The Tower of Fools and Warriors of God, Reynevan is on the run again, harried by enemies—some human, and some mystical—at every turn. These are cruel and dangerous times for a man such as Reynevan, and to survive, he must set aside his history as a peaceful healer and idealist and play the brutal role of Hussite spy as crusades sweep through Silesia and the Czech Republic, and the world around him is forever changed.

Krieg kündigt sich an. Ein Konvent der Zauberer soll klären, wie sie sich in dem bevorstehenden Konflikt verhalten werden. Am Vorabend der Besprechungen sieht sich Geralt einem Dickicht undurchsichtiger Intrigen und Bündnisse gegenüber. Der geheimnisvolle Rience, sein alter Gegenspieler, verfolgt Ciri, die Prinzessin von Cintra, die unter Geralts Schutz steht. Es kommt zu einer blutigen Konfrontation. Ciri gelingt es zu fliehen, doch dann findet sie sich in einer entsetzlichen Wüste wieder.

In Nilfgaard wird die Verlobung des Kaisers mit Cirilla, der Thronerbin von Cintra, proklamiert. Aber handelt es sich wirklich um die echte Cirilla? Geralt, halbwegs von seinen schweren Verletzungen genesen, macht sich auf den Weg nach Nilfgaard, begleitet von Rittersporn und der Bogenschützin Milva sowie einem Vampir, der sich das Trinken von Blut schon seit Langem abgewöhnt hat...

Reynevan begins by hiding away in Bohemia but soon leaves for Silesia, where he carries out dangerous secret missions entrusted to him by the leaders of the Hussite religion. At the same time, he strives to avenge the death of his brother and discover the whereabouts of his beloved. Once again pursued by multiple enemies, Reynevan is constantly getting into and out of trouble.

O irônico, cínico e descrente Geralt de Rívia perambula de povoado em povoado oferecendo seus serviços.

Das Königreich Kerack wird von Kämpfen um den Thron erschüttert. Auf der Suche nach Arbeit reist der Hexer Geralt von Riva dorthin und wird kurz nach seiner Ankunft verhaftet. Die Zauberin Koralle will ihn so zwingen, den Auftrag einer Gruppe von Zauberern anzunehmen. Er soll einen Dämon finden, der in Menschengestalt blutige Massaker verübt. Mit Unterstützung des Troubadours Rittersporn wieder frei, beginnt Geralt eine erotische Affaire mit Koralle und nimmt den Auftrag an.

No caminho para Brokilon, Geralt tropeça no corpo de um garoto, que provavelmente não tinha mais de quinze anos. O garoto foi morto por uma flecha, obviamente atirada com destreza, que ainda se vê cravada no seu crânio. Por experiência, o bruxo logo percebe o que aconteceu: certamente o garoto tinha se extraviado e entrado no território das dríades. Como para os outros que padeceram antes de igual sorte, provavelmente tinha acontecido o mesmo. Uma história triste, repetida com muita frequência.

After walking through the portal in the Tower of Swallows while narrowly escaping death, Ciri finds herself in a completely different world...an Elven world. She is trapped, with no way out. Time does not seem to exist, and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world. But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher, Geralt, and his companions - and to try to conquer her worst nightmare.

The world has fallen into war. Ciri, the child of prophecy, has vanished. Hunted by friends and foes alike, she has taken on the guise of a petty bandit and lives free for the first time in her life. But the net around her is closing. Geralt, the Witcher, has assembled a group of allies determined to rescue her. Both sides of the war have sent brutal mercenaries to hunt her down. Her crimes have made her famous. There is only one place left to run. The tower of the swallow is waiting.

L'inverno si avvicina. Stremati, Geralt e i suoi compagni sono costretti a fermarsi a Toussaint, un piccolissimo regno d'incredibile bellezza, risparmiato dalla guerra grazie alla sua posizione isolata. Lì, lo strigo spera di trovare un posto sicuro per recuperare le forze, e soprattutto informazioni che possano aiutarlo nella ricerca di Ciri. Geralt non sa se le voci secondo cui la ragazza sarebbe stata catturata dall'esercito imperiale siano vere. Una cosa è certa: ha bisogno di lui.

Geralt the Witcher has fought monsters and demons across the land, but even he may not be prepared for what is happening to his world. The kings and armies are manoeuvring for position, each fearing invasion from across the river, each fearing their neighbours more. Intrigue, dissent and rebellion are on all sides. The Elves and other non-humans are still suffering under decades of repression, and growing numbers join the commando units hidden deep in the forest, striking at will and then dissolving into the trees.

Geralt. The witcher whose mission is to protect ordinary people from the monsters created with magic. A mutant who has the task of killing unnatural beings. He uses a magical sign, potions and the pride of every witcher - two swords, steel and silver. But what would happen if Geralt lost his weapons?

Geralt of Rivia is a Witcher, one of the few capable of hunting the monsters that prey on humanity. He uses magical signs, potions, and the pride of every Witcher—two swords, steel and silver. But a contract has gone wrong, and Geralt finds himself without his signature weapons. Now he needs them back, because sorcerers are scheming, and across the world clouds are gathering. The season of storms is coming.

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.

When the Hussite leaders entrust Reynevan with a dangerous secret mission, he is forced to come out of hiding in Bohmeia and depart for Silesia. At the same time, he strives to avenge the death of his brother and discover the whereabouts of his beloved. Once again pursued by multiple enemies, he must contend with danger on every front.

The Wizards Guild has been shattered by a coup and, in the uproar, Geralt was seriously injured. The Witcher is supposed to be a guardian of the innocent, a protector of those in need, a defender against powerful and dangerous monsters that prey on men in dark times. But now that dark times have fallen upon the world, Geralt is helpless until he has recovered from his injuries. While war rages across all of the lands, the future of magic is under threat and those sorcerers who survive are determined to protect it.

Reinmar of Bielawa, sometimes known as Reynevan, is a healer, a magician, and according to some, a charlatan. When a thoughtless indiscretion forces him to flee his home, he finds himself pursued not only by brothers bent on vengeance but by the Holy Inquisition.
