Fan club of Andrzej Sapkowski (The Witcher)
People, surely among you there are people who read such a talented writer as ACE. Personally I took recently for the fourth, after overpowering the previous three. Please share your impressions about the reading. What book has impressed more? What I liked, what caught?.. Who is the most colorful character?... I bet it is possible to argue indefinitely..Of crevan

It turned out something like alternative endings, or History of the Witcher in the transposition of an old storyteller.
Totally agree. This alternative history of type what could be, if it was like in a fairy tale or how to create legends based on real events. It is interesting to read, but this story is the essence of the Saga of CRIS and Geralt...
Everyone who has read the original works of pan Sapkowski suggest to familiarize with several parodies of these works - I personally bellow. :-)

In General, I advise :-)
I was laughing when Vasiliev was reading.... there is a need to write fan fiction and sell it to people under the guise of separate books. well that is downloaded. to pay the author for this Kumar, lol.
Mr. Andrew, when asked how he refers to the fact that the initials of his name as the Polish fantasy, replied that he was very excited about it, because by chance he was not called Jean-Octavist Peyrac-of Adamkiewicz...

Here is another suggest to read...

Question for those who have read the book. WHO knew what was Geralt's last wish at the end of the first book, and what was the wish?
Long read, I remember vaguely. He kind of tried to save the different from razbushevavsheysya Genie and could wish that the witch had given up trying to rein him in, but it seems to me that he wished Jennifer, because they immediately began cocada in the ruins.
Well, Yes, it is. A post about books rather here. :)
(Oh... — shook the hand of the young moderator, and a good topic almost went under the knife. :B )
Thank you for a screeching halt), But nevertheless on a subject.
, Jennifer tried to take over the Genie, the Genie wanted to make both. Geralt was my last wish. There the idea is he somehow linked his fate with that, Jennifer. But how? Hmm...
And has anyone considered how much Sapkowski stealing tales and remade in its own way? I first thought when I read the books - the story of the mermaid of Sheens, hurt like a disney cartoon about a mermaid, the legend about the Shard, it is very similar to Snow Queen, the game is about a werewolf (dog parsley, etc.) - as a child, watched the cartoon, do not remember the details, but there is a werewolf swans were, and winsto dog parsley nettle...
Now I lost count, and I do not remember how many met such plagiarisms.... That's actually asking, maybe someone thought... I want to know.
And Sapkowski did it have to die?, he th their stories could not come up with? Personally, in my eyes Sapkowski fell sharply after that...
IMHO. Read the book, all the truth I did not read - how to say... in front of his books read by other authors-for me so they're much better at writing... If you hadn't watched the series, so nothing would understand.. these jumps from one place to another... that Geralt remembering something, he was already going,in the next Chapter he is already with somebody else... in General associate it all as it does not work-refers only separate story. In General the game is 100 times better than the books. The game will go another 10 times, and the books to read not going.
Purely my IMHO. Thank you for your attention.
in General, to associate it all as it does not work-refers only separate story
Eldar, what is the brake?? The first book is a collection of those stories, and when pan Sapkowski flooded he nachil to write novels, everything is clear and describes in chronological order.
If I hadn't watched the show, so nothing would not understand..
Well, if you survived a couple of hours of this shit, then the diagnosis is clear...
Sapkowski didn't nicking, just relied on some stories, and for me it's because he did it with humor.
and here is the book to read is not going
BE SURE TO READ!!!!!
Thank you for your attention.
Pzhaluysta!
Eldar, you th brake
No, but I don't like when the narration of events starts from the middle. And on account of which the book is a collection of short stories or th is I XS-in details didn't press when he wrote them and why -- and th it then proper....
Well, if you survived a couple of hours of this shit...
Shit it's shit, but to niche-interesting. So to say collection.
Sapkowski didn't steal
Just stealing, and brazen. Though would have altered then so that didn't recognize, and so to say almost word for word written... At the expense of humor: the Remaking of well-known fairy tales and insert them in his creation I think not, quite funny.
BE SURE TO READ
Will get better Lord of the rings once read or the dark elf... And after 2.5 Sapkowski's books that the more do not want to read. I'll play the game the Witcher- developers have turned out better...
IMHO, expressed purely my opinion.
to Heretic
About the resurrection of Geralt. To be honest, not my words, just read in new Gambling: literary cycle of Andrzej Sapkowski ended the more than gloomy: many of those who went with Witcher Geralt, including himself, died. Nerves from this hard final not sustained, it seems, even the Sapkowski.... Appearance (Geralt), of course, completely shameless and far-fetched... it's going to happen, one Sapkowski knows.
I want to say: it is difficult to judge about the subject without knowing the whole story. Books, unfortunately, I have not read. If read, would be judged most likely different. I made his version and listened to those who are more knowledgeable in the matter - THANK you!
Shit it's shit, but to niche-interesting.
I am a current film laggy and barely thinking about the series begins to feel sick, and still don't understand how he was released. Book is a billion times better and the movie and the game, and your Lord, whom by the way I also read and appreciate. Have Sapkowskis some names of monsters and references to the tales known from childhood bring it closer to Slavonic by the reader. A tale he not tired and predeliver in their own way, Vspomni the tale of the 11 swans the cat describes Geralt: actually ball 1 Swan and not 11, and not the Swan and the Pelican (in my opinion) it's that stupid sister with her nettle nothing more than to help him and could not (as in the shirt of the grass does not helps the werewolf), that in life everything is much more complicated and mundane,and link to the princes mutants in towers waiting for princes.... Yes, you're right that a lot of redone fairy tales, then it is only + and makes for another look at them. And that is what I ponravilos, and about the fact that there is funny - I finally meant all the books, there's a lot of fun.. remember even if the letter of Yennefer Geralt Dear friend is a very subtle and intelligent humor.
I'll play the game the Witcher- developers have turned out better...
What turned out better? To scenario game video had a hand Sapkowski himself.
O1eM
Appearance (Geralt), of course, completely shameless and far-fetched...
You're lying, bastards... In connection with the habit of the author of little explains, you can not be the plot to stir. In the end do not directly mention Geralt died or he was saved by CRIS (that's my opinion). Just have to hope... hope that there is no limit to the possible.
A book I recommend reading. You will not regret. The author writes very realistic. His books are full of fairy stories (some who even accused of plagiarism, although that's just silly), only that they develop as would happen in real life. This creates a very interesting impression.
I am a current film laggy and barely thinking about the series begins to feel sick
I first watched the show-13 episodes, each somewhere for 2 hours. Then I watched the film-it turned out that this is a simple cutting out of the series(nah they do it?), where nothing is clear, if not read the book or watched the show.-I did not understand the film tries to release rental and not TV series.
Book is a billion times better and the movie and the game, and Lord
Well, it's someone like that. On VK I like the book and the movie and all PC games, all played(except online). In the case of the Witcher was like the only game...
What turned out better
The fact that the game carries away and it wants to play, and to books like me then finally pulls.
Nevermind...
Heretic, thank you. The opportunity to be read.
And again returning to the issue of death. Buttercup, etc. characters Geralt said that he saw him dead (or he died). It is only in the game? In the books, something like that happened?
