Season of Storms: Booktrack Edition

De: Andrzej Sapkowski, David French - translator

Narrado por: Peter Kenny

Season of Storms: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *

Before he was the guardian of Ciri, the child of destiny, Geralt of Rivia was a legendary swordsman. Join the Witcher as he undertakes a deadly mission in this stand-alone adventure set in the Andrzej Sapkowki’s groundbreaking epic fantasy world that inspired the hit Netflix show and the blockbuster video games.

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. . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This is a series you can sink your teeth into."—BuzzFeed News

"Delightful, intense, irreverent, and compelling....you have to read The Witcher books because they are rife with all of the elements that make you love fiction, and especially fantasy, in the first place....In a word, The Witcher delivers."—Hypable

"The universe of Sapkowski's The Witcher is one of the most detailed and best-explored in modern fantasy, offering endless opportunities for fresh ideas ... Complex character relationships enrich this already complex world; this is the sort of series fantasy fans will cherish."—B&N on Tower of Swallows

"One of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read. Though it functions well as adventure fiction, it has added depth and value as satire and commentary on fantasy literature ... Sapkowski is a genuine stylist."—Nerds of a Feather on Baptism of Fire

"Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodgepodge of fantasy, intellectual discourse, and dry humor. Recommended."—Time on Blood of Elves

"Like Mieville and Gaiman, [Sapkowski] takes the old and makes it new ... fresh take on genre fantasy."—Foundation on The Last Wish

"A breath of fresh air in a well-worn genre. Don't miss it!"—p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Calibri; -webkit-text-stroke: #000000}span.s1 {font-kerning: none}Fantasy Book Review on Blood of Elves

"Sapkowski has a phenomenal gift for narrative, inventing sensational events, creating a suggestive mood, and building up the suspense along with a dazzling, slightly cynical sense of humor."—Jacek Sieradzki, Polityka on The Last Wish

"Sapkowski's The Last Wish is a great collection of short stories centered around a witcher, Geralt - a rare sorcerous breed who hunts down the monstrous but is feared by the innocent. With a wondrous mix of Eastern European folklore and myth, beautiful princesses, mischievous demons and where all is not as it seems, The Last Wish is a great read - perfect for dipping into or just reading cover to cover, as I did."—Waterstones on The Last Wish

"It is [his] world-weariness combined with his battle-honed powers that make Geralt such an interesting character. Here's hoping The Last Wish is merely the opening chapter in his English language adventures."—Edge on The Last Wish

"I really, really enjoyed this book ... None of the characters in Sapkowski's world are black or white; they are all shades of grey, including Geralt and the monsters."—The Deckled Edge on The Last Wish

"Sapkowski is very good at creating interesting, imaginative characters with unusual levels of depth to them ... The Last Wish is an enjoyable book full of stories both melancholy and comic."—The Wertzone on The Last Wish

Great story- I want more Witcher books!

This was a great prequel and connection to other Witcher books. I like the little nuggets they add in there that make you recall the other stories. Really interesting conflicts and storytelling. I wish there were more books!

Great book.. wish it would never end.

overall great book.... sad that at this time it's the last...... I feel empty now that it's done.

Incredible Finish

If you enjoyed the novels, this is well worth the read. Don't read it until you've finished the final novel though as there are great surprises in store for a reader in that case that won't make much sense otherwise, I suspect.

Geralt and Dandelion

Great to see them together for practically the entire book unlike the rest of the series

Never want it to end

I love every single Witcher book. The soundtrack audio with this one is pretty good. I swear, after listening to this one it makes me wanna start all over again.

Always makes me smile.

I really can’t get over the writing, I don’t think I ever will. It gives me goosebumbs and makes me smile.

Had some issues

This was not my favorite Witcher book. I found it hard to follow along with how it's told and there was a lot of unessary details put in that did not add anything to the story.

The mix of the soundtrack was poorly done

I have listened to many booktrack audiobooks and sadly this one reeks of short-term production. Repetitive music, out of place instruments, and poor volume mixing in many places is often distracting to the otherwise wonderful performance of Peter Kenny.

An epilogue of a book

You can really tell this was written far after the original series ended. The whole book is a fetch quest that has little to no impact on the wider story. There is some lore that's interesting, but otherwise this is a skippable second end to the series.
