Narrenturm is the first novel in a trilogy of historical fantasy novels by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski (of The Witcher fame). It was first published in 2002 in Polish, by Sapkowski's regular publisher, SuperNowa.Set during the 1420s in Silesia, Narrenturm focuses on the increasingly convoluted and improbable personal adventures of young surgeon, apothecarist and wannabe-wizard and ladies' man, Reinmar of Bielawa, aka Reynevan. All of this with the bubbling cauldron of the ongoing Hussite Wars in the neighbouring Czech lands as a backdrop.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The two sequels are Warriors Of God and Lux Perpetua.

Black Comedy: Given the particular setting and Sapkowski's style of writing, there are oodles of it in virtually every chapter.

Automatic Crossbows: Forget it. Part of a later fight scene between Reinmar and one of von Grellenort's crazed henchmen involves Reinmar trying to run away or duck from the blows of the opponent's weapon, all the while struggling nervously to reload a crossbow with a goat's foot lever.

Anti-Hero: Arguably all the characters in the main cast, but Szarlej in particular. Reinmar also has some flaws and rather unheroic traits that he's not willing to admit to at first, and the sharp-tongued and witty Szarlej likes to remind him of this with regular friendly-but-biting jabs.

Action Girl: "Nicoletta" as a younger example, Dzierzka de Wirsing as an older example.
