Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher series is a global phenomenon with over thirty million copies sold and translated into over forty languages worldwide. Crossroads of Ravens is the instant New York Times bestselling novel that every Witcher fan has been waiting for. Follow fantasy's most beloved monster hunter, Geralt of Rivia, on his first steps towards becoming a legend.
★ “A wonderful insight into the beginnings of one of fantasy's most beloved and iconic characters, Geralt of Rivia. Immersive, exciting, and emotional. Crossroads of Ravens is not to be missed.” – John Gwynne, New York Times bestselling author
Witchers are not born. They are made.
Before he was the White Wolf or the Butcher of Blaviken, Geralt of Rivia was simply a fresh graduate of Kaer Morhen, stepping into a world that neither understands nor welcomes his kind.
And when an act of naïve heroism goes gravely wrong, Geralt is only saved from the noose by Preston Holt, a grizzled witcher with a buried past and an agenda of his own.
Under Holt’s guiding hand, Geralt begins to learn what it truly means to walk the Path – to protect a world that fears him, and to survive in it on his own terms. But as the line between right and wrong begins to blur, Geralt must decide to become the monster everyone expects, or something else entirely.
This is the story of how legends are made – and what they cost.
★ “Geralt is one of the great characters in all of fantasy. Whether you're coming from the games, TV show, or are simply new to the Witcher universe - these books are absolutely worth the read.” – James Islington, author of The Will of the Many
★ “Sapkowski is a true master of fantasy literature, and Crossroads of Ravens is his latest example of his writing prowess." – Popverse

A beautiful collector’s edition and a great addition to Orbit’s Witcher series. The dust jacket features a striking painting of young Geralt that immediately stands out on the shelf. The quality of the book itself feels premium — thick, pleasant paper pages, a detailed map printed on the inside, and beautifully painted coats of arms at the beginning of every chapter that add extra atmosphere while reading.
Orbit continues the same elegant style as the previous collector’s editions, so the book fits perfectly alongside the rest of the series. A very satisfying edition both for reading and for collectors.
The stories themselves are also very enjoyable for longtime Witcher fans because they show the origins of many details connected to Geralt’s later life. The book explains where some famous names come from, including the name of his horse, and shows Geralt slowly evolving into the character known from the later novels. You can really see his lessons, growing morality, and experiences shaping him into the White Wolf readers already know.
