New Monster Stories is a Witcher fanfic written by kathkin. It takes place in a modern alternate universe of The Witcher that retains the idea of Geralt being a monster slayer with a twist. Where in the canon Witcher Universe everyone knows about monsters, most people are completely unaware of monsters in kathkin's fic and start to forget about them if they do not encounter monsters on a regular basis.

Summary

“So do you have a name?”

“Yeah.” The man who had saved his life less than an hour ago – the white-haired, absurdly buff, weirdly sexy man Jaskier might have called taciturn if he was feeling charitable and surly if he was feeling less so – dug into his second burger.

Jaskier waited. “Are… you going to tell me what it is?”

The man paused mid-bite, and looked at him reproachfully as if to say how dare you. How dare you interrupt me. Can’t you see I’m enjoying my cheeseburger. Can’t you see this cheeseburger is the most important thing in my life right at the moment. He swallowed, and said, “Geralt.”

It turns out almost getting eaten by a werewolf can make your whole life go careening off in a new, terrifying, wondrous, artistically flourishing direction. Who knew?

Recs and Reviews

This fic is incredibly funny, and it does a great job with weaving canon monsters and fantasy elements into the modern setting![1]
