A deadly coup within the Wizard's Guild leaves the Witcher, Geralt of
Rivia, gravely injured, and his ward Ciri missing in the third novel of
Andrzej Sapkowski's groundbreaking epic fantasy series that inspired the
hit Netflix show and the blockbuster video games -- in hardcover for the
first time!
The Wizards Guild has been shattered by a coup, an uprising that has
left Geralt 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.
While war rages across 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--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.
