Have you read the Witcher novels?

In 2000 or 2001 someone recommended The Witcher by Andrzej Sapkowski. series to me. It had been published in the 80s-90s… but only in Polish. I read some English fan translations and was hooked! It didn’t get an official English translation until 2007.

However, I’m sure most people probably heard of the Witcher video game series first. A lot of people might not even have heard of the books at all. That’s why it’s a bit hard to talk about the Witcher on the internet since 90% of people will talk about the video game instead of the fiction series it’s based on.

The good news is that there is an upcoming The Witcher Netflix series! It’s based on the books, not the video game. I’m cautiously optimistic even though the trailer seems to be taking liberties with the story. For example, the line “I thought you’d have fangs…” is not in character for the books. I guess the TV show adaptation will be dumbing things down for viewers.

I do like the main actor, Henry Cavill, though. I first watched his word on The Tudors. He was excellent. Here’s a video of him in the Tudors:

Thanks for reading.
