Geralt is serving as King Foltest's bodyguard during the siege of a rebel castle when the king is murdered and Geralt is blamed for it. To clear his name he goes after the real killer, a witcher turned assassin, starting in the river town of Flotsam and heading into Aedirn, with Iorveth's Scoia'tael, Vernon Roche's special forces and a circle of sorceresses all playing their own game.
Books connected to this game
- Read afterThe Witcher
Begins not long after the first game, with the same Temerian court and Geralt's memory still patchy. It assumes you know how the first game ended, so play that one first.
- Comes beforeThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Takes place after the second game, in a North shaped by how that game ended. It gives some of that ending away, though it recaps enough that you can start here.
