Andrzej Sapkowski, the author of The Witcher saga, has confirmed that he is diligently working on a new Witcher book. It has been a decade since the release of “Season of Storms,” the most recent book in the series, and 24 years since “Lady of the Lake,” which concluded the saga.
During a livestream with Ukrainian fans, Sapkowski revealed that he is currently working on a new Witcher book and expects to finish it within a year:
“I never say these things because with me you never know. Maybe I’ll do something, maybe I won’t. And so far, when I said that I would write something, and then I didn’t write it, people complained as if I had deceived them and as if I had lied.
That’s why I don’t like to talk about what I’m doing until I finish doing it. Because until I finish it, I don’t think it exists. But since I always make exceptions for Ukrainians, I will do it this time too. Yes, I’m working on a new book about witcher and quite diligently. It may take a year, but no longer.”

While details about the book’s content remain unknown, Sapkowski previously mentioned at a 2018 Polish Comic-Con that any new addition to The Witcher universe would not be a sequel to “The Lady of the Lake.” Instead, it might be a prequel or a sidequel. Fans can anticipate the new book’s release possibly in 2024. If only George R. R. Martin took notes from this guy!
