Synopsis
A collection of three linked science-fantasy novellas set in Andre Norton's Witch World: Dragon Scale Silver, Dream Smith, and Amber Out of Quayth, following different characters navigating that world's magic and politics rather than presenting a single continuous story.
Where it sits

- Series: Witch World: High Hallack Cycle ; position 3 of 11 in the series' recorded order
- Author: Andre Norton
Notes
- From the series record (Witch World: High Hallack Cycle): A separate High Hallack sub-continuity within the wider Witch World setting, solely written by Andre Norton (Core Canon, the Estcarp Cycle, is unaffected). 2 later titles co-written by other hands (Songsmith 1992 w/ A.C. Crispin, Silver May Tarnish 2005 w/ Lyn McConchie) are deliberately excluded per this project's credited-authorship bright line (Darkover/Pern precedent); The Gates to Witch World (1994) is an omnibus of already-counted novels, not new content.
Neighbouring works
Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.
