Geralt of 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. The international hit that inspired the video game: The Witcher.

The Wizards Guild has been shattered by a coup and, in the uproar, Geralt was seriously injured. The Witcher is supposed to be a guardian of the innocent, a protector of those in need, a defender against powerful and dangerous monsters that prey on men in dark times. But now that dark times have fallen upon the world, Geralt is helpless until he has recovered from his injuries. While war rages across all of the lands, the future of magic is under threat and those sorcerers who survive are determined to protect it. It's an impossible situation in which to find one girl - Ciri, the heiress to the throne of Cintra, has vanished - until a rumor places her in the Niflgaard court, preparing to marry the Emperor. Injured or not, Geralt has a rescue mission on his hands. This is the third of the Witcher novels by Andrzej Sapkowski.

Watch for the signs! What signs these shall be, I say unto you: first the earth will flow with the blood of Aen Seidhe, the Blood of Elves... For over a century, humans, dwarves, gnomes, and elves have lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, the uneasy peace is over, and now the races are fighting once again. The only good elf, it seems, is a dead elf. Geralt of Rivia, the cunning assassin known as The Witcher, has been waiting for the birth of a prophesied child. This child has the power to change the world - for good, or for evil. As the threat of war hangs over the land and the child is hunted for her extraordinary powers, it will become Geralt's responsibility to protect them all - and the Witcher never accepts defeat. Following The Last Wish, BLOOD OF ELVES is the new novel starring Geralt of Rivia, the inspiration for the critically-acclaimed videogame The Witcher.

CIRI STAJE PRED SVOJU SUDBINU. Jesenji ekvinocij te neobične godine doneo je raznolike znake na nebu i na zemlji, koji su nesumnjivo nagoveštavali nekakve nesreće i neobične događaje. Tik pred ponoć, uzdiže se strašna mećava, zaduva pakleni vihor, a oblaci gonjeni po nebu poprimiše fantastične oblike, među kojima su se najčešće ponavljale siluete galopirajućih konja i jednoroga. Leganji divljim glasovima ispevaše samrtnu pesmu, zaječa strašna bean’ši, vesnica brze i nasilne smrti, a kada Divlji Gon pregalopira i kada se raziđoše oblaci, ljudi ugledaše mesec u opadanju, kao što i biva u vreme ravnodnevice. Ali ove noći, mesec je bio boje krvi. U Hramu boginje Melitele, tri osobe snevaju isti san. „Krv na njenom licu... Toliko krvi...“ Nemilosrdne ubice iz Nilfgarda su već na tragu Ciri. Ona pak, teško ranjena, oporavlja se u kolibi pustinjaka Visogote, izgubljenoj među močvarama. Da li će veštac uspeti da pronađe Ciri? Kakvu ulogu će odigrati Lastavičja kula obavijena legendom? Lastavičja kula je šesta od sedam knjiga Sage o vešcu, koju sačinjavaju dve zbirke pripovedaka i pet romana. Saga je postal bestseler ne samo u autorovoj rodnoj Poljskoj već i širom sveta. Prevedena je na brojne svetske jezike, a na osnovu nje su nastale TV serija i čuvena kompjuterska igra The Witcher.

NEŠTO SE ZAVRŠAVA, NEŠTO ZAPOČINJE. Poslednji deo sage o vešcu Geraltu, lepoj čarobnici Jenefer i Cirili – Čedu Nenadnosti Kakva sudbina čeka vešca? Da li će mu poći za rukom da se spoji s ljubavlju svog života? Da li će se ispuniti zloslutno proročanstvo i da li će istrajati svet obuhvaćen krvavim ratom? Svet vilenjaka, ljudi i patuljaka. Ciri zagleda ispupčen reljef koji predstavlja ogromnu zmiju. Gmizavac, svivši se u oblik osmice, zario je zubine u sopstveni rep. To je drevna zmija uroboros, koja simbolizuje beskonačnost, a i sama je beskonačnost. Taj simbol podseća da se u svakom trenu, u svakom događaju, kriju prošlost, sadašnjost i budućnost. Svaki odlazak je istovremeno povratak.

The Witcher returns in this action-packed sequel to The Tower of Swallows, in the New York Times bestselling series that inspired The Witcher video games. After walking through the portal in the Tower of Swallows while narrowly escaping death, Ciri finds herself in a completely different world... an Elven world. She is trapped with no way out. Time does not seem to exist and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world. But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher, Geralt, and his companions - and also to try 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.

A collection of stories in the world of Geralt the Witcher, introducing some of the most loved characters from this universe. A must-read for fans of the novels and games alike. Geralt is a witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. Yet he is no ordinary murderer: his targets are the multifarious monsters and vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent. He roams the country seeking assignments, but gradually comes to realise that while some of his quarry are unremittingly vile, vicious grotesques, others are the victims of sin, evil or simple naivety. In this collection of short stories, following the adventures of the hit collection The Last Wish, join Geralt as he battles monsters, demons and prejudices alike... The anthology is composed of several stories, loosely linked in a chronological order: The Bounds of Reason (Granica możliwości) A Shard of Ice (Okruch lodu) Eternal Flame (Wieczny ogień) A Little Dedication (Trochę poświęcenia) The Sword of Destiny (Miecz przeznaczenia) Something More (Coś więcej)

Geralt - the witcher - and his friends and enemies return in another installment of the best-selling series. Geralt the Witcher has fought monsters and demons across the land, but even he may not be prepared for what is happening to his world. The kings and armies are maneuvering for position, each fearing invasion from across the river, each fearing their neighbours more. Intrigue, dissent and rebellion are on all sides. The Elves and other non-humans are still suffering under decades of repression, and growing numbers join the commando units hidden deep in the forest, striking at will and then dissolving into the trees. The Magicians are fighting amongst themselves, some in the pay of the kings, some sympathetic to the elves. And against this backdrop of fear and contempt Geralt and his lover Yennefer must protect Ciri, orphaned heir and sought by all sides. For the prophecy rests on her, and whether she lives or dies she has the power to save the world - or perhaps end it.

Drugi deo Sage o vešcu Međunarodni bestseler serijal prema kojem je osmišljena planetarno popularna kompjuterska igra The Witcher Mač sudbine se sastoji od šest dužih priča i s Poslednjom željom predstavlja osnov za bolje razumevanje serijala Saga o vešcu.

I dok se u pojedinim pričama, naročito u prvoj (Granice mogućnosti), obrađuju bajkoviti fantastični motivi, u većini priča produbljuju se međuljudski odnosi, kao i odnosi među raznolikim bićima, likovima čije se sudbine razvijaju u nastavku serijala. Mač sudbine je druga od sedam knjiga Sage o vešcu, koju sačinjavaju dve zbirke pripovedaka i pet romana. Saga je postala bestseler ne samo u autorovoj rodnoj Poljskoj već i širom sveta.
