What to expect
Discover the Witcher series like you've never heard it before in this brand-new, immersive audio production with music, sound design, and a full cast. Geralt the Witcher – revered and hated – holds the line against the monsters plaguing humanity in The Last Wish, the first collection of Witcher stories and the beginning chapter in Andrzej Sapkowski’s groundbreaking epic fantasy series.
Starring Ben Dilloway as Geralt, Sian Thomas as Nenneke, priestess of Melitele, Lydia Wilson as Yennefer of Vengerberg, Peter Kenny as the narrator, and a full cast.
Geralt is a Witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless hunter. Yet he is no ordinary killer. His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world.
But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.
Andrzej Sapkowski's epic fantasy Witcher series is a global phenomenon that inspired the blockbuster video games and hit Witcher Netflix show.
