An English translation of The Last Wish, the first short story collection, was published in the United Kingdom by Gollancz in 2007 and in the United States by Orbit in 2008. The stories and novels have been translated into Dutch, Bulgarian, Czech, Serbian, Swedish, Russian, German, Italian, Lithuanian, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Turkish, Finnish, Hungarian and Slovak. In some Polish editions, "Droga, z której się nie wraca" and "Coś się kończy, coś się zaczyna" are added to either The Last Wish or Sword of Destiny. The rest of the stories in this book are not connected to the Witcher series in any way. ![]() "Droga, z której się nie wraca", along with "Coś się kończy, coś się zaczyna", a non-canon story about Geralt and Yennefer's wedding, written as a wedding gift for Sapkowski's friends, were later published in the book Coś się kończy, coś się zaczyna ( Something Ends, Something Begins ). Although new short stories were added in The Last Wish, they took place before the ones in S word of Destiny. While The Last Wish was published after it, it replaced Wiedźmin as the first book, as it included all of the stories collected in Wiedźmin except "Droga, z ktorej się nie wraca" (the only one not featuring Geralt). The second short story collection to be published was Sword of Destiny. The first four stories of the witcher Geralt - and the story " Droga, z której się nie wraca" ("The Road with No Return"), which took place in the same world, but dozens of years before the witcher stories - were originally collected in a short story collection titled Wiedźmin (out of print and now obsolete all fifteen short stories were later collected in three books published by superNOWA.) The first short story, "Wiedźmin" ("The Witcher") (1986), was written for a contest held by the magazine, where it won third place. The Witcher series started as a series of short stories, at first published in Fantastyka, a Polish science fiction and fantasy magazine.
