Gwent: Art of The Witcher Card Game

If you're a fan of the Witcher games and/or books, you're going to love this! The same applies if you're into fantasy art. If you've played the stand-alone Gwent game, you'll have seen most of this art before (although there are three illustrations from cards which have yet to be released), but when you see them as full page pictures you can appreciate their quality so much more. A number of artists are involved,but for me the works of Bryan Sala, Anna Podedworna,Bogna Gowronska and Bartomej Gowet stand out. The inclusion of explanatory text on all the full page illustrations is really welcome, although its a pity that the smaller pictures tend to have 'quotes', which are not so informative. My only gripe is with some of the choices of which cards to illustrate full page. You don't really need that much contextual text for cards like 'Savage Bear' or 'Torrential Rain' (examples of full page illustrations), whereas major characters like Dandelion, Lambert, Eskel, Olgierd and Keira Metz are smaller pictures when there is quite a lot to say about their characters.Despite this, the quality of the art and of the book itself still easily merit 5 stars.

Good book, it’s out of date though and missing a lot of the art I bought it for, also would be nice for some of the pieces to be bigger

I got this as I became addicted to Qwent within the Witcher. Excellent great art prints, it really focuses on the art with short explanations of the cards. Some of the art are large full page spreads not in card format others smaller as the cards were in the game. If you enjoyed the game and the art style you'll love this.

Wether you are into Gwent or just into the Witcher 3 this book is packed full of artwork depicting the character found in the novels as well as the games

A amazing book. I do not play the card game but I buy this just for the art. It is amazing!

Beautiful book, worth every penny. The quality of the book is excellent, as is all Dark Horse’s art books.It’s been months and months since I have bought this and I still occasionally pick it up to look through it.My only (minor) criticism is that some of the more major characters are relegated to small images while less significant characters have full pages.

Amazing art and some additional information on every card. A must have for every withcer and gwent fan!

Beautiful artwork
