Hi, I'm about to start reading the witcher books soon. So, according to this chronology, 'season of storms' supposed to come 2nd right? Or does it not matter? Thanks.
If i remember correctly, in Story 2 a Grain of truth. Only in the netflix version, Nivelline was a Bandit, in the book he was a normal soldier when commited his crime. And Verenna stayed alive because Nivelline begged Geralt for her live. And she Feeded on Nivelline, but because she love him, she made sure he always had time to recover from her. It was more of a story that showed Geralts path and motivation. And in Story 6 It was not so misterious what Geralt wished for. In the Netflix showe they made a big point out of it, and remember Yennefers reaction when she hears about it. In the books, she instead heard his wish the moment he made it, and that did make her fall for him, well and of course the bond of the wish too. For the first Story of Sword of Destiny... The grenn dragon did not give Borch her Baby, the green dragon was the mate of him, and was already at a save place when the figth between Borch and the mechenaries broke out. Well i dont want to critic everything, so i only say, at the end of Lady of the Lake, Ciri not putting Geralt and Yennefer on a boat that comes out of nowhere. The boat was on a small lake in the City of Rivia. For the rest, thanks for the effort of making the video, even with the little failures i found, i really enjoyed watching it.

I love such long videos about fantasy books, especially those of The Witcher! I would gladly listen to a much more detailed version of this video, even if it would be 7 hours long xD
@@storieswithcookie some Witcher-lore Videos like your Gaunter O'dim video would be great too for some 'shorter' videos that don't require THAT much time to make.
after striga hes not in temple but in a rest room over guard post.. probably over the pallace gate... nivelen son of a band leader, did not insult.. his band robbed the temple and hold the priestes for him so that he bacame a real man.. she kills her self and curses him... he never invited girls.. bruxa is higher type of vampire not tendencies... renfri was not seeking protection.. she had signed and saled pergamen from the king by which she was protected and caldemine fojt/reeve has his hands tight.. calante dont force him, she arranged that the midnight bell rings before the real midnight so he has to put his helmet down to show his "face" that shows also for later how sneaky calante was.. živena is not a witch she is something like goddes of the nature, where she lingers everything grows and flourishes.. dragon didnt take out dwarfs.. brian in brokylon was ordered to lead him to duen canel by the long road.. the empire of novigrad?!?! novigrad is a town... nielfgard.. filipa eilhard didnt woud gerald it was rienz with his steel fingers which he got over the portal by magic, filipa stopped gerald from hunting rienz via portal...
Read all except the season of storms (since I may read it in the future, I skipped that part to prevent spoilers) and I can say it's a nice sum. Thanks for the effort 👌💯
This might be just me but... I'm not saying the books are bad, it's just that people hold them above the games so much that I thought it's actually better. To be honest, I still prefer the games (because they're more visual) and the writing of the books and the games seems equal to me. Some people might find the books more engaging and that's fine by me, I'd say I'm the odd man out actually. But one reason why it might also be less appealing to me is that, the books are about the story of the Witcher universe rather than just Geralt. The games have created a deeper connection for me towards Geralt and I'd say that's probably why I find them more exciting, I get to spend my time with Geralt rather than with Ciri or Yen or etc. But I still wanted to have a better understanding of these stories while walking around and looting people's houses.
I just read all the Witcher books except Season of Stroms, but I don't understand what happened to Geralt and Yennefer at the end. Did they die or where did that boat take them?
The books are alright but there are so many side stories are things that come seemingless out of the blue like the realm of the elves in the last book which makes it too convoluted and the ending a bit anti climatic. These many story arches with the battle between nilfgaard and the kingdoms and so on was at times really long.
I will say that’s the biggest weakness of the books. Sapkowski isn’t the best at writing stories as novels, the short stories are much better. Still, the Witcher isn’t awful. I would put it in my top ten fantasy series of all time I think.
I didn't get few things. Correct me.. there are 2 Nilfgardian emhyrs 1 who wanted to marry her but he introduces fake ciri ,, and other who turns to be her real father ? However her mother run away with a hedgehog?
There is only 1 - they are the same! He definitely changes drastically from when he is a hedgehog who marries Ciri’s mother to when he is the emperor and wants to marry a fake version of his daughter 😅
I just wanted to know 2 points First what exactly happened at the battle of sodden like with whom were they fighting with and did yennefer and triss - fourteenth of the hill died there or not? Secondly at the last event in the lady of the lake to where did the unicorn take yen and geralt ? Like when they were put on the boat what exactly happened after they disappeared?
All good questions! I believe the battle of sodden was between the North and Nilfgaard. And no only 13 bodies were recovered. People thought Triss died but she didn’t. ***SPOILER WARNING*** As for the lady of the lake of the lady, makes the most sense to me is this: After the boat ride, Yennefer and Geralt awoke on the island. This concludes the books. Some time later, the Wild Hunt invaded the island and abducted Yennefer. In response, Geralt returned to the living world and pursued the Wild Hunt. During his journey, he rescued Letho of Gulet along with two other Witchers from the School of the Viper. The pursuit led them far south, where they fought with the Wild Hunt. To try to save Yennefer, Geralt offered his life in exchange for hers. The Wild Hunt agreed, taking Geralt and leaving Yennefer in the care of Letho and the other Witchers. This sets the stage for the first game, where Geralt either escapes or is released by the Wild Hunt near Kaer Morhen with his memory gone.
Amazing video, helped me a lot to remember things from previous books (I'm reading book 7 atm). But why are you using pictures of the characters from the terrible and inaccurate Netflix show? Most of them are nothing like the books.
@@storieswithcookie I always thought the games show and books were all based off the same things, just different ways to experience the same story essentially lol. I’m already eager to play #2 and reading that many books would take too long lol. Thanks for the video I appreciate it for sure!
I don’t think you realized that this doubles as a recap for people that already read the books. They don’t want to read the again but this refreshes their knowledge.

it says this video has been made private.. :(
Spoiler for the Netflix Witcher show? I wish it was
Rip netflix witcher. Was dead on arrival
@@bobafett109 I was done with it after the first season. 😅
Hahahah yes
It is, though. You either didn’t pay attention to this video or you just never watched the show.
Show using the characters and places, makes everything else up @@deepfreeze1001
In Blood of Elves it's the Empire of Nilfgaard that invades Cintra, not Novigrad, which is more like a city state than an empire.
Novigrad Is just a port-city. The bigest northern one. And oldest human one if i recall correctly. Wasnt there the first landing? Or was it on Yaruga?
@@drake3116i could be wrong but i think first landing was in the pontar valley, not the yaruga
This is great! It helped a lot to get the broad view of the Witcher world. Didn't even know the games happens after the book
Thank you so much, glad it helped 😁
I have played all 3 witcher games and watched series but nvr read the books, thx to you now i know the whole story of witcher😊 & loved your voice btw🤌
Great to hear you now know the full story! And thank you for the sweet comment ❤️😄
It's Nilfgard I think not Novigrad
Nilfgaard* yeah you're right I was thinking wth? When I heard that pretty sure I heard her say Novigaard too
Amazing vid, you really summarized the book series in the best way. Hands down, the best witcher books summary!!!
Aw thank you so much! That means a lot!! ❤️❤️
I'm in the unusual camp of having read the books and never played the games
That’s too funny 🍪
Hahaaha same😅
@@GhostInTheShade you should finish witcher 3 dude it's a great game
Recently just finished reading the entire series, really enjoyed it
That’s great to hear! I enjoyed the series as well 😄
Thank you so much for this video, its really helpful and detailed and explained the whole story for me :)
Glad it was helpful! 😊❤️
I never played the first two Witcher games, but just finished the first 5 books. This is a great video.
Thank you 😊
Just the video I was looking for, great job!
Thank you!! 😊
never been interesting in witcher stuff but i am listening to this video for a reason
❤️❤️
Amazing recap, thanks for also including the seasons of storms that book was one of the best in series
Aw thank you! ❤️

You should reread A Grain of Truth. You’re misremembering a lot, and it is a great story that isn’t too long
@@thicc_reap7569 your right, i should read the books in General again.
English isn’t your first language is it

Maybe your Not wäre but there are more countries and people with different First Language then there are English Natives.
@@snowsallerlei813I guess sarcasm doesn’t exist where you come from.
Your English isn’t bad it’s just very hard to understand.
Thank you the Video helped me catch up with the story and you have a great voice
Aw thanks!!
We really appreciate such type of content
Thank you so much 😊
This is great! A summary on every book would be perfect!!!
Aw thank you so much! ❤️ Stay tuned on the summary of every book 😉
Nice video, made me want to read the books again
Duny becomes emperor of Nilfgaard and uses his real name Emyhr later on. Great video by the way, I enjoyed it!
Yay glad you enjoyed it!!
Been waiting for a video of this for a while
Great to hear! ❤️
Got the audio books a while back and had difficulty keeping all the story threads/characters/political details straight. This helped!
Awesome, glad to hear!! 😊
The witcher books are fantastic
Excellent, thanks for the hard work 👍

I’m putting them all together into one video with the remaining ones as well. Stay tuned 😊
@@storieswithcookie wow! It will be a very lengthy video, right?
Yup, more than 10 hours 😂
Couldn’t get through blood of elves but I want to know what happened thanks for the vid.
Yay, glad it could be of help! ❤️

Awesome channel. Keep it up and you will go far.
Thank you!!
Did something happen to your Witcher books summary’s I can’t find them
I’ll be uploading them all (including the remaining books) as a single video. Stay tuned 😊
I just read all the Witcher books except Season of Stroms, but I don't understand what happened to Geralt and Yennefer at the end. Did they die or where did that boat take them?
They end up getting married according to Ciri :)
I’ve read the books and played Witcher 1 but took a long break before trying to play 2 and 3
Thank you SO MUCH for this. I love you LOL (and Milva 😭)
Thank you so much, that means a lot!! Glad you to have you here ❤️❤️
Jaskier of Oxenfurt. Or is it Dandelion of Redania?

How old is triss in the witcher 3 wild hunt?
I like the story from the game; maybe I have to read the books myself
I didn't get few things.

Emperor of Nilfgard not Novigrad. Novigrad is a location with alot of markets selling things.
Thanks. ❤ It's coo de tah.
Yes thank you I don’t know why I pronounced it like that 😂
I just wanted to know 2 points
First what exactly happened at the battle of sodden like with whom were they fighting with and did yennefer and triss - fourteenth of the hill died there or not?
Secondly at the last event in the lady of the lake to where did the unicorn take yen and geralt ?

Yes!
@@storieswithcookie i started to read again; at work. I moved up a lil, barely time to breathe.
Good to hear you are moving up, that’s awesome!
@@storieswithcookie I'd love to tell you all about it. 😊
This recap is great but the pronounciation of some of the names was painful tu listen to. :D
Thank you 😊 and yes some of those Witcher names are just crazy difficult to pronounce 😂
Great video synopsis but terrible pronunciation.
Is this video read by AI😅
As nice as your recap is, people interested in Witcher and who enjoy it really should just read the books.
I don’t think you realized that this doubles as a recap for people that already read the books. They don’t want to read the again but this refreshes their knowledge.
@@alexisvillanueva1570 Yeah lol I already read the books this is just a nice refresher before playing witcher 3
Butchered it
Not as bad as Netflix did
You shouldn't be using scenes from that Netflix abomination to describe the books. That's insult for the books!
