Notes

• From the series record (Pan Lodowego Ogrodu): A Polish special-forces operative is sent to a planet where an earlier human expedition went missing; the world's own people practice real magic, and survivors of the earlier expedition have themselves become powerful magic-workers pursuing rival visions of a new order. Genre-boundary note: critical and encyclopedic consensus (the SF Encyclopedia) treats this as a science-fantasy hybrid -- a science-fiction first-contact frame around a setting where magic genuinely operates as the central plot engine -- the same kind of borderline case this project has already admitted elsewhere (Pern) rather than excluded.
