“I’d be proud,” she said quietly, lowering her head. “I’d be proud and happy to fight at your side.”“I believe that. But I’m not gallant enough. Nor valiant enough. I’m not suited to be a soldier or a hero. And having an acute fear of pain, mutilation and death is not the only reason. You can’t stop a soldier from being frightened but you can give him motivation to help him overcome that fear. I have no such motivation. I can’t have. I’m a witcher: an artificially created mutant. I kill monsters for money. I defend children when their parents pay me to. If Nilfgaardian parents pay me, I’ll defend Nilfgaardian children. And even if the world lies in ruin—which does not seem likely to me—I’ll carry on killing monsters in the ruins of this world until some monster kills me. That is my fate, my reason, my life and my attitude to the world. And it is not what I chose. It was chosen for me.”… “But I don’t want to die in a war, because they’re not my wars.” Praise for Andrzej Sapkowski:“Sapkowski has a phenomenal gift for narrative, for inventing sensational events, creating a suggestive mood, and building up the suspense. Along with a dazzling, slightly cynical sense of humor.” —Jacek Sieradzki, Polityka“The character interplay is complex, unsentimental and anchored in brutal shared history. All bodes well for twisty plotting in future volumes.” —SFX on Blood of Elves
