Trapped in a world ruled by the Elves, separated from Geralt and her destiny, Ciri will need all her training as a fighter and sorceress to survive in the fifth novel of the Witcher, Andrzej Sapkowski's groundbreaking epic fantasy series that inspired the hit Netflix show and the blockbuster video games -- in hardcover for the first time!
After walking through the portal in the Tower of Swallows and narrowly escaping death, Ciri finds herself in a completely different world. . . an Elven world. Time does not seem to exist and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world. She is trapped.
But this is the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher and his companions--and also to conquer her worst nightmare. Leo Bonhart, the man who chased, wounded, and tortured Ciri, is still on her trail. And the world is still at war.

I love the Witcher book series, the games are great as well just prefer the books better though. This one doesn't have Geralt in it as much as it more about Ciri an her experiences though out events in the book. Worth the read!
Didn't finish reading it yet but I love it, amazing book, great story, hey, it's The Witcher, one of the best fantasy novels there are.
There was a section that I had to SKIP because it was so boring, the endless battles of names of places and people I couldn't remember or care about. The saving grace was Ciri's travels but the end was so so...
This was the worst book of the series. The odd and very long sections with the two dream scholars. The overly long, unnecessary sections about Jerre. He was barely in the other books, and we needed 100+ pages of him losing. his hand. Then there was a the m.a.s.h. like scenes with the dwarf surgeon. Also the overly long winter in Troubadour!This book could have been 200+ pages shorter and lost nothing.It was a disappointing ending to the series.
A rich layered story with massive world building while weaving in faith tales and folklore. Sometimes it was hard to track what world and time the characters were in but nothing some quick rereading couldn't answer. I wanted to blast through the story but the details were so good that I slowed down to really experience them.
