&#8216;The Witcher&#8217; Creator Andrzej Sapkowski Announces Next Installment as a Potential “standalone” Novel on Geralt of Rivia

The Polish maestro Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher book series has explored its
themes in the embodiment of various expansions and spin-offs. As a legacy on its
own, the book series has attested to a humongous fan following since its
inception. Only a few days ago, Sapkowski announced a possible release window of
his new book for the Witcherverse while lamenting his concerns about the
spin-off universe.

Just when the fans were seeking additional details about his imminent release,
Andrzej Sapkowski came to the assistance of his dedicated supporters.


ANDRZEJ SAPKOWSKI REVEALS MORE ABOUT THE WITCHERVERSE’S NEW BOOK

The Polish author’s presence at the Vienna Comic Con event brought forth a range
of updates. Having announced his fresh discovery to be hitting the shelves by
late 2024 or early 2025, the additional details were amiss. However, Sapkowski
has confirmed to Beyond Pixels, as translated by Redanian Intelligence, that his
upcoming novel would focus on Geralt of Rivia. He further revealed that the new
book will be a “standalone” novel “outside the pentalogy.”.



Although the book currently lacks a title, it will follow a similar course to
his book, Season of Storms. The announcement also marked a decade-long interval
from his last solitary creation. The air of clarity suggested that it would be
no continuation of the Witcher saga. Given its focal point is Geralt, it might
reinstate an entry point to the undiscovered traits of the monster hunter.

The 75-year-old Polish author’s interviews at Vienna Comic Con further focused
on a diverse array of news, including the adaptations, and his preference for
Geralt.

not go unnoticed

While expressing his accounts of preference in another part of the interview as
reported by Redanian Intelligence, he revealed a comment on Geralt’s voice that
was at play owing to the expansions. The novelist settled on Henry Cavill

Apart from that, the author had admitted previously how his book comprises only
“letters”.

Hence, watching the entire narrative unfolding in visuals is always something
new. Furthermore, he said, “So my own idea of Geralt’s voice, that would be
Cavill.”. Taking into account the initial enthusiasm displayed by Sapkowski and
Cavill at the prospect of Netflix’s adaptation, followed by their disappointment
with the creators’ betrayal of the source, it appears that the men’s outlooks
nearly echo each other.
