Watch for the signs! What signs these shall be, I say unto you: first the earth will flow with the blood of Aen Seidhe, the Blood of Elves....
For over a century, humans, dwarves, gnomes, and elves have lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, the uneasy peace is over, and now the races are fighting once again. The only good elf, it seems, is a dead elf.
Geralt of Rivia, the cunning assassin known as The Witcher, has been waiting for the birth of a prophesied child. This child has the power to change the world - for good, or for evil.
As the threat of war hangs over the land and the child is hunted for her extraordinary powers, it will become Geralt's responsibility to protect them all - and the Witcher never accepts defeat.
Following The Last Wish, Blood of Elves is the new novel starring Geralt of Rivia, the inspiration for the critically acclaimed videogame The Witcher.

The worst part about the book is the lack of Geralt chopping people's heads off and killing monsters. It surprisingly lacks a lot of action because much of the plot focuses around Ciri and her development, and the political moves going on in the realms.
Still the narrator is excellent and reads in a way the captures the imagination and the story is exciting enough to maintain your interest.
AWESOME great narrator!

Geralt, of courseDid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Several moments made me laughAny additional comments?
The book is very good, but lacks focus in some places. I felt like not much transpired over the course of 11 hours or so. Still worth reading, just be prepared to be in this for the long haul.A fascinating yet loosely constructed novel

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I'd recommend this audio book to a random stranger, it's that good!What did you like best about this story?
This book gives you so much story, especially if you've already read The Last Wish and or play the video games. It ties together a lot of pieces and gives you insight into Ciri and Yennefers lives, as well as Yennefer and Triss's relationships with Geralt.What does Peter Kenny bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The way Peter Kenny reads each character is beyond! He could sniff and you'd know it was Dandelion without him saying anything else. He makes the world of The Witcher come to life, and gives meaning to every word.Any additional comments?
I love love loved this. Favorite book so far!Amazing!!!

I purchased the Blood of Elves at once, ready to again inhabit the mind of a witcher and slay monsters for coin. This did not happen. The book begins from another character's point of view, and though the events indirectly involve the witcher, he takes no part. After this we take the perspective of a different character, also depressingly not Geralt.
It doesn't get much better from there. In fact, Geralt is involved in maybe half the events of the book, and we get less than half of that from his perspective. Most of the story is told from the perspective of a 13 year old girl, who while an interesting enough character, keeps the reader always away from the heart of the action. It was not the book I was hoping for.
Still, the mythology and lore of this world are incredible, and even if the story is lacking there is much to love about this book. The characters are complex and flawed, the politics Machiavellian and nuanced, and the social dynamics realistic. While I would have much preferred a story focused on Geralt, still the most interesting of the bunch, I happily fed on the scraps of my favorite character Sapkowski saw fit to drop in the Blood of Elves. Worth the read.

This book tells a story but mostly sets the scene of two enemy countries, on the brink of war, and how the Witcher Geralt of Rivia is stuck in the middle, with both countries and numerous independent guilds after him and those he loves.
Read 'The Last Wish' first, its only a book of short story about Geralt, but is a good read and provides some back story to these characters.
Great story, interesting writing
