title: The Witcher Boxed Set: Blood of Elves, The Time of Contempt, Baptism of Fire
author:  Andrzej Sapkowski 
description: <i>"</i>The universe of Sapkowski's <i>The Witcher</i> is one of the most detailed and best-explored in modern fantasy, offering endless opportunities for fresh ideas ... Complex character relationships enrich this already complex world; this is the sort of series fantasy fans will cherish."<b><i><i>B&amp;N </i></i></b><br /><br />"One of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read. Though it functions well as adventure fiction, it has added depth and value as satire and commentary on fantasy literature ... Sapkowski is a genuine stylist."<b><i><i>Nerds of a Feather</i></i></b><br /><br />"Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodgepodge of fantasy, intellectual discourse, and dry humor. Recommended."<b><i><i>Time</i></i></b><br /><br /><i>"</i>A breath of fresh air in a well-worn genre. Don't miss it!"<b><i><style type="text/css"> p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Calibri; -webkit-text-stroke: #000000} span.s1 {font-kerning: none} </style> <i>Fantasy Book Review</i></i></b><br /><br />"<i>The Witcher </i>delivers one of the most intense and rewarding role-playing experiences this year."<b><i><i>GT Reviews </i>on <i>The Witcher </i>video game</i></b>
zlib_text: For	over	a	century,	humans,	dwarves,	gnomes,	and	elves	have	lived
  together	in	relative	peace.	But	times	have	changed,	the	uneasy	peace
  is	over,	and	now	the	races	are	fighting	once	again.	The	only	good	elf,	it
  seems,	is	a	dead	elf.
  Geralt	of	Rivia,	the	cunning	assassin	known	as	The	Witcher,	has	been
  waiting	for	the	birth	of	a	prophesied	child.	This	child	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	hunted	for	her
  extraordinary	 powers,	 it	 will	 become	 Geralt's	 responsibility	 to	 protect
  them	all	-	and	the	Witcher	never	accepts	defeat.
