I když se Andrzej Sapkowski proslavil svým geraltovským cyklem, rozhodně se neomezuje pouze na tohoto hrdinu. Tato kniha jej představuje jako autora studie o nejznámější a nejslavnější středověké legendě o králi Artušovi a rytířích Kulatého stolu, v níž se mu úspěšně daří bořit mnohé zažité stereotypy. Na tuto studii mnohé navazuje Sapkowského osobité zpracování části artušovského mýtu v povídce Maladie. Příznivci hororů se mohou začíst do jeho romantických textů Tandaradei!, Muzikanti či Příhoda v Mischief Creeku. Výsledkem autorovy fascinace Carrolovou Alenkou v krajině divů (a kočkami) je povídka Zlaté odpoledne. A na závěr to asi nejlepší, povídka V kráteru po bombě, reflexe možného vývoje naší části Evropy po roce 1989. V této povídce, jakož i prakticky ve všem, co Sapkowski kdy napsal, se zračí autorův bytostný odpor k fanatismu a nesnášenlivosti všeho druhu.

Zaklínač Geralt. Muž, jehož posláním je chránit obyčejné lidi před magicky stvořenými nestvůrami. Mutant, který má za úkol zabíjet nepřirozené bytosti. Používá magická znamení, kouzelné lektvary a chloubu každého zaklínače – dva meče, ocelový a stříbrný. Co se však stane, když Geralt nešťastnou shodou okolností o své meče přijde? Zaklínačské zbraně mají nejen obrovskou hodnotu, ale jejich ztráta je pro majitele zároveň obrovskou potupou. Geralt je musí získat zpátky. Co nejrychleji... Andrzej Sapkowski se na stránkách samostatného románu vrací ke svému nejpopulárnějšímu hrdinovi. Zaklínač Geralt znovu bojuje, cestuje a miluje, Marigold zpívá a lítá z průšvihu do průšvihu, čarodějové intrikují… a nad celým světem se stahují mračna – přichází bouřková sezóna.

Audiokniha od autora: Andrzej Sapkowski, čte: Martin Finger. Délka nahrávky: 9 hodin, 22 minut. Než se stal legendou, byl jen mladým zaklínačem hledajícím svou cestu. Toto je příběh o tom, jak vznikají legendy – a jaká je cena za její stvoření. Než se stal Bílým vlkem a Řezníkem z Blavikenu, byl Geralt z Rivie pouhým čerstvým absolventem Kaer Morhen, který vstoupil do světa, jenž jeho druhu nerozumí ani ho nevítá. A když se naivní hrdinský čin ošklivě zvrtne, Geralta zachrání před oprátkou jen Preston Holt, zkušený zaklínač s pohřbenou minulostí a vlastními plány. Pod Holtovým vedením začíná Geralt poznávat, co to skutečně znamená kráčet po stezce – chránit svět, který se ho bojí, a přežít v něm. Když se však hranice mezi dobrem a zlem začíná stírat, Geralt se musí rozhodnout, zda se stane monstrem, které v něm všichni vidí, nebo někým úplně jiným. Příběh pokračuje. Příběh nikdy nekončí.

Audiokniha: Zaklínač Geralt z Rivie putuje světem, aby bojoval proti nestvůrám, temným bytostem, upírům a vlkodlakům a chránil obyčejné lidi. Je obdařen vlastnostmi, o nichž se běžným smrtelníkům ani nesní. Dráha zaklínače však není volbou, ale osudem. A výjimečné dovednosti bývají draze vykoupeny vyhnanstvím na okraji vrtošivé lidské společnosti. Život Zaklínače je proto někdy tesknou bojovou písní, kterou však stojí za to dozpívat až do samého konce. Výbor napínavých povídek Andrzeje Sapkowského obsahuje Prolog z knihy Zaklínač I. Poslední přání a kompletní povídky Zaklínač II. Meč osudu.

Audiokniha: Barvité postavy, intriky, špionáž, magie, krásné ženy a drsní muži. Co chtít víc? První díl z Husitské trilogie je skvělou směsí rytířské romance, fantasy románu a napětí, okořeněné velkou dávkou humoru od mistra polské fantasy. Píše se rok 1425, Čechami zmítá husitská revoluce a ve Slezsku se sbírá katolické vojsko ke křížové výpravě. Geralt z Rivie brousí své meče... tedy pardon, to je z předchozí knihy. Mladý, naivní a věčně zamilovaný medik a čaroděj-amatér Reinmar z Bělavy začíná své neuvěřitelné dobrodružství v náručí krásné Adély von Sterza. Historický fantasy román Narrenturm, který je pro svou hravost, překvapivé zvraty, historickou věrnost a všudypřítomný sžíravý humor považován za možná to nejlepší, co kdy Sapkowski napsal. S dalšími díly, Boží bojovníci a Lux Perpetua, tvoří tzv. Husitskou trilogii, známou i jako Sága o Reinmarovi z Bělavy.

Sedm příběhů zaklínače Geralta. Meč osudu je několikátou povídkovou sbírkou o Geraltovi, trubadúrovi Marigoldovi čarodějce a Yennefer, kde se jejich osudy všemožně kříží a rozpojují, aby se nakonec všichni opět setkali.Hlavním hrdinou tvorby Andrzeje Sapkowského je zaklínač Geralt z Rivie. Jako nájemný hubitel upírů, vlkodlaků a všemožných nebezpečných netvorů pochopitelně ovládá bojové a magické techniky nezbytné pro své zaměstnání. Nicméně není pouze chladnokrevným profesionálem, a už vůbec ne jedním ze superhrdinů, jimiž se žánr fantasy jen hemží. Postupně vychází najevo, že neměl možnost si svůj osud svobodně zvolit, ale naopak je nucen draze platit za schopnosti a dovednosti nedosažitelné a vesměs též nepochopitelné běžným smrtelníkům. Proto vyvolává strach a zároveň nevraživost a odpor těch, jejichž životy vlastně chrání. Přes své pozitivní působení jsou zaklínači odsouzeni k vyhnanství na samém okraji společnosti, která sice působí vnějškově středověkým dojmem, avšak mnoho jejich atributů je převzatých ze současnosti.

This extraordinary New York Times bestseller reexamines a pivotal event of the civil rights movement—the 1955 lynching of Emmett Till—“and demands that we do the one vital thing we aren’t often enough asked to do with history: learn from it” (The Atlantic). * A New York Times Notable Book * A Washington Post Notable Book * Longlisted for the National Book Award * Winner of the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award *An NPR, Los Angeles Times, and Atlanta Journal-Constitution Best Book of the Year *In 1955, white men in the Mississippi Delta lynched a fourteen-year-old from Chicago named Emmett Till. His murder was part of a wave of white terrorism in the wake of the 1954 Supreme Court decision that declared public school segregation unconstitutional. Only weeks later, Rosa Parks thought about young Emmett as she refused to move to the back of a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama. Five years later, Black students who called themselves “the Emmett Till generation” launched sit-in campaigns that turned the struggle for civil rights into a mass movement. Till’s lynching became the most notorious hate crime in American history. But what actually happened to Emmett Till—not the icon of injustice, but the flesh-and-blood boy? Part detective story, part political history, The Blood of Emmett Till “unfolds like a movie” (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution), drawing on a wealth of new evidence, including a shocking admission of Till’s innocence from the woman in whose name he was killed. “Jolting and powerful” (The Washington Post), the book “provides fresh insight into the way race has informed and deformed our democratic institutions” (Diane McWhorter, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Carry Me Home) and “calls us to the cause of justice today” (Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II, president of the North Carolina NAACP).
