A prophesied child at the center of a changing world

In Blood of Elves, a fragile peace among humans, dwarves, gnomes, and elves gives way to the threat of war. Geralt of Rivia, a Witcher who hunts monsters, takes responsibility for protecting Ciri, his ward, whose extraordinary powers make her a target. The conflict brings together Geralt, Ciri, and the sorceress Yennefer amid dangers that include monsters, demons, and prejudice. As the first novel in The Witcher Saga, the book sets its central relationships against a broad fantasy struggle over the consequences of prophecy and power.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers seeking epic fantasy with multiple peoples and a looming war.
  • Readers interested in a monster-hunting protagonist and a story centered on protecting a child with extraordinary powers.
  • Those beginning The Witcher Saga in novel form.

For over a century, humans, dwarves, gnomes, and elves have lived together in relative peace. But that peace has now come to an end.

Geralt of Rivia, the hunter known as the Witcher, has been waiting for the birth of a prophesied child. The one who 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 pursued for her extraordinary powers, it will become Geralt's responsibility to protect them all. And the Witcher never accepts defeat.

Join Geralt of Rivia; his beloved ward and the child of prophecy, Ciri; and his ally and love, the powerful sorceress Yennefer as they battle monsters, demons, and prejudices alike in Blood of Elves, the first novel of The Witcher Saga.
