Waiting on Wednesday 01/25/17

“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that lets us feature upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

Mogsy’s Pick

Lady of the Lake by Andrzej Sapkowski (March 14, 2017 by Orbit)

At long last the official English translation of the final book of The Witcher will be released this spring, though at this time I have no idea if the audio edition from Hachette Audio will be available on the same day as well. Being a diehard fan of the audiobooks and Peter Kenny’s excellent narration for this series though, I wouldn’t even mind waiting a little longer for it if I have to!

lady-of-the-lake“The Witcher returns in this action-packed sequel to The Tower of Swallows, in the New York Times bestselling series that inspired The Witcher video games.

After walking through the portal in the Tower of Swallows while narrowly escaping death, Ciri finds herself in a completely different world… an Elven world. She is trapped with no way out. Time does not seem to exist and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world.

But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher, Geralt, and his companions – and also to try to conquer her worst nightmare. Leo Bonhart, the man who chased, wounded and tortured Ciri, is still on her trail. And the world is still at war.”

  1. Hi Mogsy, happy to announce we finished recording yesterday so … fingers crossed it should be a joint release… it’s killer! Well worth the wait. He’s a genius!

  2. I really want to get around to reading these this year. The Witcher is a world I really want to dive into, and I do have Blood of Elves and The Last Wish (and all three games, *ahem*). So knowing that the book series will be wrapped up in this translation this year is great news! 😀
