There are eight books in The Inheritance Cycle series and this is the correct sequence for reading them.


1 – The Last Wish

(Free with Audible Trial)

Geralt of Rivia is a Witcher. He is no ordinary killer: his victims are the multitudinous monsters and vile fiends who ravage the land and prey upon the innocent. But not everything monstrous looking is evil and not everything that looks fair is good…and there is always a grain of truth in every fairy tale.


2 – Sword of Destiny

(Free with Audible Trial)

As the Witcher Geralts roams the country seeking missions, he gradually realises that while some of his targets are unrelenting monsters, others are the victims either of sin, evil, or simply naivety.


3 – Blood of Elves

Over a century ago, humans, dwarves, and gnomes lived peacefully together. But times have changed. The uneasy peace is over. Now the races are fighting once more. Only a dead elf is good for anything. Geralt of Riva, the Witcher, has waited for the birth of a child prophesied by a witch. This child has the potential to change the world for the better or for the worse. When the threat of war looms over the land and the girl is hunted for her extraordinary abilities, it will be Geralt’s job to protect them all. The Witcher never gives up.


4 – The Time of Contempt

The elves and other non-human races are still suffering from centuries of repression, and a growing number of them join the commando units hiding deep in the forests, striking at will and disappearing into the trees. Against this backdrop of fear and distrust, Geralt and his lover, Yennefer, must protect Ciri, an orphaned heir and sought after by all sides.
