The Witcher VI Tower of the Swallow
The thrilling sixth part of the fantasy epic from the war-torn world of the Witcher
The world is being devoured by a merciless war. But behind the shutters of a moss-covered cottage, an ash-blonde girl tells her story. By candlelight, she whispers of a warrior's winding path, of a spurned orphan and a broken heart. The ugly scar on her face does not suit the green eyes of a child. Ciri cannot forgive the witcher Geralt and Yennefer for leaving her at the mercy of dark forces. But she will make her enemies tremble with fear. No one else will decide her fate.
