Where it sits
- Universe: The Witcher
- Series: The Witcher core; position 2 of 9 in the series' recorded order
- Author: Andrzej Sapkowski
Notes
- Foundational collection, reading order #2 despite the earliest Polish year (1992); introduces Ciri. English translation appeared after four saga novels.
- From the series record (The Witcher): Reading order: collections first (official superNOWA numbering), then the 5-novel saga, then standalones. Polish and English publication orders both differ from reading order.
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.
- Publication order, within the series The Witcher: position 1 of 9: next The Last Wish (1993)
