I'm on a mission to help you find your new favourite books.

This is an introduction to The Witcher. You've heard of it, but have you read it? Or better yet, SHOULD you read it?

This is a spoiler-free deep dive into all eight books. I'll look at these iconic characters, the history of it's writing, and even look into the Slavic Mythology that the world is based on.

And if that isn't enough, there's a rock cover of Toss A Coin To Your Witcher at the end. Just cause I love you guys! xoxo
