Witcher books, help!

edited February 2016 in General Chat

I'm almost to the end of the last of the officially translated Witcher books (Baptism of Fire). I would like to wait for the rest of the officially translated books to hit the shelves, even though I've notice a fair share of mistakes in the officially translated ones, but seeing as the last one is listed with a 2017 release date I just don't think I'll be able to break the addiction for that long.

In short, has anyone read a fan translated version of the books and can give me a link to them? Preferably a very good translation :)

    Fan translations of Swallow's Tower and Lady of the Lake. The Season of Storms prequel translation is also in progress there. The fan translations put together here are pretty solid, superior to the official ones I'd reckon.

  • Thanks so much! Not too worried about finishing the book anymore :)

    But what is the Season of Storms?

    It's the most recent book. It's something of a midquel, it takes place between the short stories in The Last Wish and thus before the main saga and the games.

  • Interesting, who does it follow? Geralt, I would assume, but it would be too early for Ciri to take part, correct?

    Yeah, Geralt. It's very reminiscent of the old short stories, just as a novel in itself. Not really an essential read for the saga, but a good one if you're craving more Witcher.

  • There are multiple versions of the books on that forum, which one do you suggest for each?

    Probably the reworks. They weren't around when I was using them, but there were a few mistakes I noticed that they probably fixed.
