Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski is the author of the bestselling The Witcher series. He successfully narrated the tale of monster hunters, called Witchers, who develop supernatural strength to go toe to toe with deadly beasts. The short stories and novels developed a cult following and spawned a TV series (according to TheVore.com the Henry Cavill fantasy show is coming out in 2020), a movie, videogames, and a graphic novel. But The Witcher Saga is not the only popular fantasy novel. Here are others of the same genre and storyline.
