    Introducing Geralt the Witcher - revered and hated - who holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in the bestselling series that inspired the Witcher video games and a major Netflix show. Geralt of Rivia is a Witcher, a man whose magic powers and lifelong training have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. Yet he is no ordinary killer: he hunts the vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent. But not everything monstrous-looking is evil; not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth. Andrzej Sapkowski, winner of the World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement award, started an international phenomenon with his Witcher series. The Last Wish is the perfect introduction to this one-of-a-kind fantasy world.

Anche Ciri vorrebbe diventare una di loro, così, se tornasse il cavaliere di Nilfgaard, lei non avrebbe più paura, anzi sarebbe pronta a combattere.

    Spisovatel Andrzej Sapkowski o knize řekl: „V knize Rozcestí krkavců‘ se vracím ke kořenům Geraltovy cesty. Není neohroženým zabijákem nestvůr, jak ho známe, ale mladým zaklínačem, který teprve začíná chápat tíhu svého osudu. Představte si Geralta, ale mladého, s méně jizvami a povýšenějšího. Je to příběh o osobním růstu, setkání idealismu s tvrdou realitou a volbách, které utvořily legendu. Je o hledání svého místa ve světě, který vás neustále vyzývá, abyste se stali něčím víc, než si myslíte, že můžete být. Nemohu se dočkat, až budou mít čtenáři příběh v rukou a budou kráčet po boku Geralta. Zažijí tak zkoušky, které ho formovaly, a cestu, která ho nasměrovala k jeho osudu.“
