The Witcher<\/a> is having something of a moment right now. Late last month, Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski<\/a> released his first new book in the series in more than a decade, Crossroads of Ravens. In just over a week, Netflix<\/a> will follow that up with the fourth season of its TV show adaptation of Sapkowski’s Witcher Saga, which will be the first to feature Liam Hemsworth<\/a> as the titular monster hunter Geralt of Rivia following the departure of former star Henry Cavill<\/a>.<\/p>\n
