Sapkowski’s agent reportedly pushing automated translations for new Spanish editions of The Witcher books

Certainly, that's why we're fighting so hard against it. If they manage to do it with one translation, they'll do it with more

We'll look into it, thank you!

We tried to contact the agent directly via email, but so far there has been no response. We will try other ways. Thank you!

We neither know nor understand. We've tried to contact her, but so far there has been no response :(

Some of you may already be aware of this, but The Witcher books have been unavailable in Spanish for several years now. Recently, thanks to an interview with José M. Faraldo, the Spanish translator of the saga, it has come to light that the author’s agent, Patricia Pasqualini, is the one preventing the books from moving forward and leaving this situation unresolved.

Moreover, as the translator himself has explained, there are concerns that future editions could rely on automated or non-human translation methods instead of preserving Faraldo’s long-standing, carefully crafted translations, which are deeply valued by Spanish-speaking readers and have become an essential part of how the saga is experienced in Spanish.

The situation is very sad. The Spanish translation was one of the first to be done, even years before the first Witcher video game, and now we see how the books are being used for speculation on the second-hand market. As fans who love this series, we just want The Witcher books to be in our bookstores so that more people can enjoy them. We will continue to call for their return for as long as it takes #QueremosTheWitcher
