Resumen del Editor

The Time of Contempt: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

Soon to be a major Netflix original series!

To protect his ward, Ciri, Geralt of Rivia, sends her away from the home of the Witchers to train with the sorceress Yennefer. But all is not well within the Wizard's Guild in the second book of the NYT best-selling series that inspired the blockbuster video games.

Geralt is a witcher: guardian of the innocent; protector of those in need; a defender, in dark times, against some of the most frightening creatures of myth and legend. His task, now, is to protect Ciri. A child of prophecy, she will have the power to change the world for good or for ill - but only if she lives to use it.

Andrzej Sapkowski, winner of the World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award, started an international phenomenon with his Witcher series.

Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Looking forward to the next book

As with all books there were some story lines that I liked better than others. Wasn’t too much of a fan of the ending but loved the book enough to continue reading the series.

Highly recommend

Atmospheric

I enjoyed the atmospheric music. Wasn't overpowering at all. Solid story and narrative performance.

For No Music!

I just found out there is another version of this WITHOUT MUSIC! You have to purchase the one without David A. French. I’m so happy now!

The best book so far

There are a lot of laugh-out-loud moments. I'm pretty impressed with the quality of the English translation. I still have the 4th and 5th books to listen to but I love this book the most so far

A great book, made even better by Peter Kenny!

Obviously another great book by Sapkowski, but for me, Peter Kenny is the real star!! He's just so great with his character acting, but also just so great at bringing scenes to life! This was my first "booktrack" with the soundtrack and sound effects, and it was a nice little addition I suppose. However, I wouldn't ever pay extra for it that's for sure. All things considered equal though, I would choose it for the same price over one without the soundtrack. ON TO THE NEXT!!

Another great hit!

I loved the story and the great job they did with the performance with the voices.

Like the story

If you are into fantasy this series may be for you. Listen to it on audio or read it outright. Up to you

solid read through

characters were given life and distinction. was well articulated and emotionally conveyed. this one didnt do chapter breaks aloud though which was a little disappointing

absolutely loved this.

The story is definitely enhanced with the ambient sounds and music to help with the theme and set mood of the scenes.

An absolute delight to listen to!!!

This book had me hooked from start to finish. The reader empassionately and clearly imparts the story with varying voices and accents skillfully and artfully. The accompanying soundtrack underlines the tone of scenes beautifully. Can't wait to hear the rest of the series!
