Frequently Asked Questions

Should I play the games or read the books first?

Most fans recommend reading the books first (The Last Wish, then Sword of Destiny, then the five-novel saga beginning with Blood of Elves) since the games are set after the books and contain major spoilers. That said, The Witcher 3 is a perfectly fine entry point if you prefer gameplay over reading.

Why did Henry Cavill leave The Witcher?

Henry Cavill departed after Season 3, reportedly due to creative differences over the show's faithfulness to Sapkowski's source material. A passionate fan of the books and games, Cavill was replaced by Liam Hemsworth starting in Season 4.

How many Witcher books are there?

Andrzej Sapkowski wrote eight Witcher books in total: two short story collections (The Last Wish and Sword of Destiny), a five-novel saga (Blood of Elves, Time of Contempt, Baptism of Fire, The Tower of the Swallow, and The Lady of the Lake), and one standalone prequel novel (Season of Storms).
