About this listen

 Geralt the Witcher races to find his missing ward, Ciri, in this fourth novel in the bestselling Witcher series that inspired the blockbuster video games and the fourth season of the hit Netflix show.

The world has fallen into war. Ciri, the child of prophecy, has vanished. Hunted by friends and foes alike, she has taken on the guise of a petty bandit and lives free for the first time in her life.

But the net around her is closing. Geralt, the Witcher, has assembled a group of allies determined to rescue her. Both sides of the war have sent brutal mercenaries to hunt her down. Her crimes have made her famous.

There is only one place left to run. The tower of the swallow is waiting...

Great book as all the other ones
Ciri murdering Stefan Skellens hanse and Rience gave me chills

Ciri is a badass

Despite a few slowdowns in Geralt's story, it is still a very compelling sequel. Ciri's journey and Yenefer's adventure stole the light from our Witcher's story - and it's nice to see some arcs (opened in Blood of Elves) come to an end. Warning: Bonhart may give you nightmares.

Another amazing performance by Peter Kenny - a voice for all voices.

This is my second time going through the Witcher series and it's so enjoyable. it's been a good few years and I'd forgotten alot of the story as I've listened to and read sooo many other books in that time. What an incredible ride it is, each Witcher book adding to the richness and complexity of the epic tale. Never a dull moment, completely captivating.

Dark and delicious
