Reviews
One of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read
Like Mieville and Gaiman, [Sapkowski] takes the old and makes it new . . . [a] fresh take on genre fantasy
Delightfully dry humour, mythology brimming with radical creatures and a group of interesting characters, The Last Wish is a great introduction to this universe
Refreshing and a lot of fun to read
Sapkowski has a confident and rich voice which permeates the prose and remains post-translation. I'd recommend this to any fan of Heroic or Dark fiction
Captivating, often nerve-wracking, and truthfully . . . rip-roaring fun
Character interplay is complex, unsentimental and anchored in brutal shared history
There's lots of imagination on show, the writing has a strong voice, and the Witcher is an entertaining character
Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodge podge of fantasy, intellectual discouse and dry humour. Recommended
