Sword of Destiny (Illustrated HB)

Man O Man. What a World, What a lore.I got into the Witcher Universe back in 2018 with Witcher 2:Aok, then I Watched the Netflix Series, played Wild Hunt and now Halfway through this Book.Also I just ordered The Last Wish.(If you wanna Start with Witcher books Either start with 'Sword of Destiny' or 'The Last Wish' then Move on to the Witcher Saga with 'Blood Of Elves' and then end with 'Season of Storms')

A fine prequel to the main series. Its definitely worth reading both the prequels since it lays the foundation for the main series and introduces the main characters. The kindle version was of good quality and it did not have any typesetting issues that i observed.

Always a Fan of Witcher books, and Andrej Sapkowski's writing. This Hardcover book series is the most premium and most cared property on the Books side of the Witcher's world. The Illustrations are lovely as ever, the Print quality is Amazing and overall build of the Book is perfect. However...It's missing one thing, which I'm 90% sure was there in other reviews I've seen for the book, which was the engraved Quote on the Hardcover as there is in the previous one, Last wish. It was Yennefer's quote in same blue with slight Cyan accent tint used in other parts of the books. I don't know if it was a mistake or not but I expected that to be there

I loved the way the characters were introduced and developed. I loved the way destiny was held as an answer for every question. The best part about the series is author's vision into this world of witcher.

Good continuation of story, flashback section of story are deep and reveal plot more...some twists in flow nay be lost in translation from original polish version..that is my guess..

Must read saga. The delivery was great too. Loving the series.

Sapkowski skillfully and effortlessly weaves stories about complex themes. Some of the stories that I found most memorable-In the eponymous tale "The sword of destiny" , Sapkowski reveals the central theme of this book: Fate and destiny. Beautifully written, never feels like the writer is forcing the characters. The story moves organically and the thread continues in the next story: "Something more", and ends with a deeply pleasing note."A Little Sacrifice" is the strangest story in the collection. In retrospect it is also about destiny linking people together, or rather in this case pushing people away. The story ends with a deeply unsettling paragraph which made me think about the unfortunate characters long after I finished reading it.

It has one of the best short stories I have ever read. And the only book I have read twice in my life
