La fin du monde ne survint pas en l'an de grâce 1420. Pourtant, bien des signes l'avaient présagée.
Les sombres prophéties des chiliastes ne s'accomplirent pas. Ils avaient annoncé la fin des temps avec précision : en février de l'an 1420, le lundi suivant la Sainte-Scolastique. Mais voilà... le lundi passa, vint le mardi puis le mercredi... et rien. Le Temps du Châtiment et de la Vengeance précédant la venue du royaume de Dieu n'advint pas. Mais, pour sûr, on ne s'ennuyait point !
C'est ce que pensait Reinmar von Bielau, surnommé Reynevan, un savant herboriste lié aux puissants de l'époque, espion et magicien à ses heures. Ce jeune homme, épris de la belle et fougueuse Adèle, l'épouse d'un seigneur silésien vivait des moments de passion inoubliables. Jusqu'au jour où les amants furent surpris par les frères du mari trompé. Ce fut le début des ennuis pour Reynevan...
Découvrez son destin exceptionnel à travers cette grande fresque d'aventures, par l'auteur best-seller de la saga du Sorceleur. Mêlant Histoire et fantastique, La Trilogie hussite prend place durant les croisades de Bohême, qui façonnèrent l'Europe du XVe siècle.
Une immersion dans une période passionnante de notre histoire, au fabuleux souffle épique ! -

The adventures of Geralt the Witcher continue in this second novel in the bestselling Witcher series that inspired the Netflix show and video games.
The kings and armies are manoeuvring for position, each fearing invasion from across the river, each fearing their neighbours more. Intrigue, dissent and rebellion fester on all sides.
After decades of oppression, the elves and other races are fighting each other and attacking the humans - and with growing numbers preparing for battle, the threat of all-out war looms ever greater.
Against this backdrop of fear, Geralt and Yennefer must protect Ciri, the orphaned heir who is sought by all sides. For the child of prophecy has the power to change the world - if she lives to use it.
Translated by David French. -
A BRAND NEW TRILOGY from the author of the legendary WITCHER series, set during the vibrantly depicted Hussite wars.
Reinmar of Bielau, called Reynevan, flees after being caught in an affair with a knight's wife.
With strange, mystical forces gathering in the shadows and pursued not only by the Stercza brothers bent on vengeance, but also by the Holy Inquisition, Reynevan finds himself in the Narrenturm, the Tower of Fools, a medieval asylum for the mad, or for those who dare to think differently and challenge the prevailing order.
The 'patients' of this institution form an incomparable gallery of colourful types: including, among others, the young Copernicus, proclaiming the truth of the heliocentric solar system.
This is the first in an epic new series from the phenomenon, ANDRZEJ SAPKOWSKI, author of the WITCHER books
Praise for Andrzej Sapkowski:
'Like Mieville and Gaiman, Sapkowski takes the old and makes it new' FOUNDATION
'Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodge podge of fantasy, intellectual discourse and dry humour. Recommended' TIME -
Geralt of Rivia is on a mission to save his ward, Ciri, and with her the world, in this third novel in the bestselling Witcher series that inspired the Netflix show and video games.
The Wizards Guild has been shattered by a coup and, in the uproar, Geralt was seriously injured. The Witcher is supposed to be a guardian of the innocent, a protector of those in need, a defender against powerful and dangerous monsters that prey on men in dark times.
But now that dark times have fallen upon the world, Geralt is helpless until he has recovered from his injuries.
While war rages across all of the lands, the future of magic is under threat and those sorcerers who survive are determined to protect it. It's an impossible situation in which to find one girl - Ciri, the heiress to the throne of Cintra, has vanished - until a rumour places her in the Niflgaard court, preparing to marry the Emperor.
Injured or not, Geralt has a rescue mission on his hands.
Translated by David French. -
The epic conclusion to the Hussite Trilogy by the bestselling author of The Witcher finds Reynevan - infamous magician and disgraced scoundrel - on the run after being sentenced to death by the Catholic Church.
Reynevan is besieged on all sides and faces torture and execution if he makes any mistake in his quest to find his beloved, Jutta of Apolda. Aided by his companions - the ever-pragmatic Scharley and the mysterious being known as Samson Honeypot - his journey takes him all over the Bohemian realm.
And Reynevan will need every ounce of his wit, intelligence and cunning if he is to succeed in his search. The political and religious alliances of the Hussite Wars are ever shifting, and the battle for dominance threatens to devour anyone who gets in their way.
Faced too with dark magical forces summoned by the malevolent Birkart of Grellenort, aided by his terrifying band of Back Riders, Reynevan knows the odds of finding Jutta decrease with every obstacle he is forced to overcome along the way. But he has never let impossible odds stop him before - and he will be reunited with his love, whatever the cost. -

The fifth novel in the New York Times bestselling Witcher series that inspired the hit Netflix show finds Ciri trapped in a distant world and separated from Geralt and her destiny.
After walking through a portal in the Tower of the Swallow, thus narrowly escaping death, the Witcher girl, Ciri, finds herself in a completely different world... a world of the Elves. She is trapped with no way out. Time does not seem to exist and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world.
But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher, Geralt, and his companions - and also to try to conquer her worst nightmare. Leo Bonhart, the man who chased, wounded and tortured Ciri, is still on her trail.
And the world is still at war.

Andrzej Sapkowski returns to his phenomenal world of the Witcher in a stand-alone novel where Geralt fights, travels and loves again, Dandelion sings and flies from trouble to trouble, sorcerers are scheming ... and across the whole world clouds are gathering.

Tueurs de monstres, mutants aux capacités extraordinaires, les Sorceleurs inspirent nombre de rumeurs. Elles sont souvent infondées et construisent, dans l'imaginaire collectif, une image antipathique de la Confrérie. Mais qui sont-ils réellement ?
Le Manuel du Sorceleur est un guide unique en son genre : il rassemble d'authentiques informations qui permettent de faire la lumière sur l'ombre qui entoure la Confrérie.
À destination de l'apprenti Sorceleur ou du curieux, Le Manuel du Sorceleur renferme de précieux renseignements sur le Continent et les pratiques des Sorceleurs à travers le regard et le crayon d'Ekaitz de l'École du Loup. Ce Sorceleur expérimenté a décidé de prendre des notes sur l'ensemble de ses aventures afin de prévenir les dangers que la méconnaissance entraîne, grâce la transmission de son savoir.
Ce guide détient des anecdotes complètement inédites sur la vie d'un Sorceleur et sur la mythologie de l'univers. Commençant par présenter le Continent et son Histoire, Ekaitz s'attarde ensuite sur la Confrérie des Sorceleurs et ses secrets. Une partie est consacrée à l'alchimie et dresse une liste des mixtures, potions et diverses pierres utiles aux Sorceleurs au cours de leurs aventures. Certaines pages sont consacrées aux monstres et créatures rencontrées, elles sont agrémentées de notes sur les différents stratagèmes utilisés pour pouvoir les confronter. Enfin, Ekaitz a trouvé utile d'inscrire quelques notions de langue ancienne, l'Hen Ilinge, nécessaires pour appréhender certains textes et converser avec de nombreux peuples.
Un vadémécum primordial pour l'apprenti ou le curieux, fourmillant de détails sur la mythologie du Sorceleur et enrichi des croquis et des commentaires éclairés d'un Sorceleur émérite.
