About this listen
Watch for the signs! What signs these shall be, I say unto you: first the earth will flow with the blood of Aen Seidhe, the Blood of Elves....
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.
Following The Last Wish, Blood of Elves is the new novel starring Geralt of Rivia, the inspiration for the critically acclaimed videogame The Witcher.

A siege is approaching, and the city has little time to prepare. The people have no food and no weapons, and the enemy has sworn to slaughter them all. To save the city will take a miracle, but what it has is Orhan. A colonel of engineers, Orhan has far more experience with bridge building than battles, is a cheat and a liar, and has a serious problem with authority. He is, in other words, perfect for the job.

Good, but a product of it's time.
I first got into this universe with the Witcher 3, like most people. But I decided since I didn't want spoilers, and I wanted to actually know what was going on, I'd read the books first. So I tried them, and while they're good, the series is a product of the times. The book gaslights you, the style is bland, and the narrator conveys no emotion. That's fine, but in the book itself nothing... happens. Like the most interesting thing to occur is an alley fight and even then Geralt just kills them all and moves on. I get that this series has a large following, but thank god for the Netflix series, or I would've stopped with this all together.

I loved listening to this book. I was introduced to The Witcher by son as he plays the game and I found it very intriguing. Peter Kenny does a fantastic job narrating as I find that I can totally distinguish the difference in the characters. That is why I have given it 5 stars all around.

Amazing Narration!
Peter Kenny truly brings the world of the Witcher to life! His vocal range and the ability to provide personalities to so many characters is mind-boggling. Having played the video games (Witcher 3), I must say that I am not disappointed one bit. This story provides useful background explaining how Ciri and Geralt met and the role they had in each other's lives.
Looking forward to the rest of the series!

astounding performance
I've read the book previously but not since it was originally translated and wanted to catch up before the new Netflix series starts. I'm new to audiobooks but feel a need to commend Peter Kenny on his performance. I particularly loved his voicing of the many characters present during the first few minutes of the book describing one of Dandelion's performances.
