Sin manifests into bloodlust in this graphic novel adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s original short story.

Geralt pursues a proclamation from a king of a bloodthirsty monster plaguing his palace. A hefty reward is offered to cure the beast, but not to kill it, for the king holds a secret—what lies beneath the palace is beyond the spawn of evil. Tried and failed by charlatans, Geralt sets out to claim the bounty—by decree of the king or by the pleas of those who wish the creature dead.

This graphic novel is the fourth in a series of adaptations from Sapkowski’s acclaimed short story collection The Last Wish!
