About this Podcast:

Tales from the Witcher showcases a serialized, original story set in the Witcher universe. Part audiobook and part Actual Play, these tales are written and narrated by Jacob Gerstel—and are based on the adventures of his Witcher tabletop roleplaying group. We’ll follow the exploits of a stoic Bear School witcher, an alcoholic elven sorcerer, a resourceful craftsman, a lively bard, and others as they try to stay alive during the Third Northern War. There’s action and adventure, magic and the mundane, scheming and politics, elves and dwarves, war and peace, and—because it’s the Witcher—a touch of philosophy. You can purchase the complete novelized series at: www.patreon.com/JacobGerstel This series is complete.
