The Last Wish (The Witcher, #1)

About this book

Geralt de Rivia is a witcher. A cunning sorcerer. A merciless assassin. And a cold-blooded killer. His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world. But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is good...and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth. A collection of short stories introducing de Rivia, to be followed by the first novel in the actual series, The Blood of Elves. Note that, while The Last Wishwas published after The Sword of Destiny, the stories contained in The Last Wishtake place first chronologically, and many of the individual stories were published before The Sword of Destiny.
