About this listen

The Witcher, Geralt of Rivia, holds the fate of the world in his hands in the New York Times bestselling first novel in the Witcher series that inspired the Netflix show and video games.

NAMED ONE OF FORBES' GREATEST BOOK SERIES OF ALL TIME 2024

For more than a hundred years, humans, dwarves, gnomes and elves lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, the uneasy peace is over and now the races are fighting once again - killing their own kind and each other.

Into this tumultuous time is born a child of prophecy, Ciri, surviving heiress of a bloody revolution, whose strange abilities can change the world - for good, or for evil...

As the threat of war hangs over the land, Geralt the Witcher must protect Ciri from those who are hunting the child for her destructive power.

But this time, Geralt may have met his match.

Translated by Danusia Stok.

Good story but I had to reduce the speed of the narration ( speaking rate) from standard speed to slightly slower. Either it’s set wrong to begin with or the narrator speaks way way too fast to enjoy listening to the story.

Narrator speaks too fast

After reading the whole saga of the Witcher, I smiled in nostalgia after listening to the first entery of the main books read to me in a refreshing fashion! The Witcher world felt like new and I thoroughly enjoyed Peter's narration!

Amazing start to an amazing journey!

is not as action packed as the other books, this one is more focused on the relationship of Ciri an the rest of the cast, is very entertaining and exciting on its own.

great book

I'm an instant fan. The narration while not instantly attracting you in, grows in and you and manages to keep you listening continously.

Bloody brilliant and the narration grows on you

Great narration

I officially started the mein storyline of Witcher and OMG it's so good even though I loved Sword of Destiny and the Last Wish a deep connected story is much better. The only thing I disliked were the times when it got too political but yeah I'd definitely recommend it.

So it begins.

The first 2 books in the witcher series (pre-trilogy) are so good, that it's really hard to live up to their standards.
This book - the first in the trilogy - is a necessary step forward in the story. It's not as awe-inspiring as its predecessors, but still a great listen. The narration. as always, is SUPERB.

The Witcher world is very detailed and the the writer usually gave the right ammount of description just about anything. Not too much, not too little.
The story was interesting, albeit it ended very abruptly.
The voice acting is great and different from character to character.

I did not even notice the time flying
