"Crossroads of Ravens is an ideal starter novel for anyone wondering what the fuss is about... Crossroads of Ravens is a great book to start your Witcher journey. It is well written, fast-paced and accessible... Old-school fantasy done right."

"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

"Anyone wishing to learn more about Geralt's early years will be pleased to see the Witcher in action again... This is a gift for series fans."

"Even if you're only curious about The Witcher from the Netflix show or video games, Crossroads of Ravens offers an engaging story that hits hard thematically and explores how "monstrosity" is a socially-constructed category. Sapkowski is a true master of fantasy literature, and Crossroads of Ravens is his latest example of his writing prowess."

"This is not only a good book, but arguably one of the strongest and most focused in the entire Witcher series. If you enjoy The Witcher, then Crossroads of Ravens is an essential read."

"For potential readers who are already familiar with Geralt, either through the TV series or video games, this is a great place to start your reading adventure."--Grimdark Magazine

"I loved this book so much. It is definitely going to be one of my top 10 reads for the year 2025... And whatever one's level of exposure to The Witcher franchise: only the TV show, games (all/only Witcher3, ) all the books, or only some of the books, or any combination of the above or even none of the above - this is a perfect point to jump straight in. It is a proper standalone tale."

"A wonderful insight into the beginnings of one of fantasy's most beloved and iconic characters, Geralt of Rivia. This is a great read. Immersive, exciting and emotional. Crossroads of Ravens is not to be missed."--John Gwynne, New York Times bestselling author
