Description: L'ATTESISSIMO ULTIMO ATTO DELLA SAGA BESTSELLER CHE HA ISPIRATO IL FENOMENO THE WITCHERAntiche profezie e intrighi politici, potenti incantesimi e creature mostruose per una serie fantasy che è ormai un cultL'inverno si avvicina. Stremati, Geralt e i suoi compagni sono costretti a fermarsi a Toussaint, un piccolissimo regno d'incredibile bellezza, risparmiato dalla guerra grazie alla sua posizione isolata. Lì, lo strigo spera di trovare un posto sicuro per recuperare le forze, e soprattutto informazioni che possano aiutarlo nella ricerca di Ciri. Geralt non sa se le voci secondo cui la ragazza sarebbe stata catturata dall'esercito imperiale siano vere. Una cosa è certa: ha bisogno di lui. Tuttavia Ciri non è l'unica a essere in grave pericolo: le spie di Nilfgaard sono ovunque, e persino in un luogo idilliaco come Toussaint c'è qualcuno che trama nell'ombra perché Geralt non ne esca vivo... L'hanno ribattezzata la Signora del Lago. Per sfuggire alle truppe di Nilfgaard, Ciri ha varcato il portale magico nascosto nella Torre della Rondine e, da quel giorno, gli elfi si sono presi cura di lei, guarendo le sue ferite e trattandola come un vera principessa. Ciri quindi ha abbassato la guardia e non si è subito resa conto di non essere affatto una loro gradita ospite, bensì una prigioniera. Ma, adesso che ha scoperto il gioco degli elfi, deve assolutamente riuscire ad evadere. Perché lei è la Fiamma di cui parlano le profezie. Ed è giunto il tempo che il suo destino si compia...

Andrzej Sapkoki La stagione delle tempeste
mobi | 686.8 KB | 9788842928546 | Andrzej Sapkoki | 2016 | Editrice Nord
Description: LA SERIE CHE HA ISPIRATO IL FENOMENO THE WITCHERLa guerra con l'impero di Nilfgaard è ormai finita, eppure il poeta Ranuncolo ha ancora molte storie da raccontare. E allora prende in mano il liuto e ricomincia a cantare le avventure di Geralt di Rivia...Prima che il suo destino venga segnato dall'incontro con la principessa Cirilla, Geralt di Rivia ha un solo obiettivo: sopravvivere. Per questo viaggia di città in città, offrendo i suoi servigi di strigo a chiunque ne abbia bisogno. Che si tratti di spiriti maligni, ghul o volpi mutaforma, Geralt è sempre pronto a combattere, soprattutto se c'è la possibilità di guadagnare qualche moneta. Il suo è un mestiere rischioso, eppure nessun mostro si è mai rivelato infido e spietato quanto la peggiore di tutte le creature: l'uomo. Infatti è per colpa di un'umana se Geralt si ritrova in una cella, spogliato delle armi e accusato ingiustamente di estorsione e di furto. E la faccenda si complica quando la cauzione viene pagata dalla stessa, affascinante donna che lo ha fatto arrestare: Lytta Neyd, meglio conosciuta come Corallo. E che adesso lo aspetta fuori della prigione. Cosa può volere da lui una delle più potenti maghe di Skellige? E che fine hanno fatto le sue spade e i suoi elisir, scomparsi dal deposito del carcere? Solo e disarmato, Geralt non ha altra scelta che andare incontro a Corallo e sperare che lei lo aiuti a recuperare il suo equipaggiamento da strigo. Anche se il prezzo da pagare potrebbe rivelarsi altissimo...Diciassette anni dopo aver scritto l'ultimo romanzo della saga, Andrzej Sapkoki torna nell'universo affascinante e pericoloso di Geralt di Rivia con una nuova avventura che coniuga magie e colpi di scena, epiche battaglie e graffiante ironia, gettando una nuova luce sul passato dello strigo che ha conquistato milioni di lettori in tutto il mondo.La saga di Geralt di RiviaIl guardiano degli innocentiLa spada del destinoIl Sangue degli ElfiIl tempo della guerra Il battesimo del fuocoLa Torre della RondineLa Signora del Lago

Andrzej Sapkoki Il guardiano degli innocenti
mobi | 688.26 KB | 9788842916598 | Andrzej Sapkoki | 2010 | Nord
Description: Geralt è uno strigo, un individuo più forte e resistente di qualsiasi essere umano, e si guadagna da vivere uccidendo quelle creature che sgomentano anche i più audaci: demoni, orchi, elfi malvagi... Strappato alla sua famiglia quand'era soltanto un bambino, Geralt è stato sottoposto a un durissimo addestramento, durante il quale gli sono state somministrate erbe e pozioni che lo hanno mutato profondamente. Non esiste guerriero capace di batterlo e le stesse persone che lo assoldano hanno paura di lui. Lo considerano un male necessario, un mercenario da pagare per i suoi servigi e di cui sbarazzarsi il più in fretta possibile. Anche Geralt, però, ha imparato a non fidarsi degli uomini: molti di loro nascondono decisioni spietate sotto la menzogna del bene comune o diffondono ignobili superstizioni per giustificare i loro misfatti. Spesso si rivelano peggiori dei mostri ai quali lui dà la caccia. Proprio come i cavalieri che adesso sono sulle sue tracce: hanno scoperto che Geralt è gravemente ferito e non vogliono perdere l'occasione di eliminarlo una volta per tutte.
