Sword of Destiny

Miecz przeznaczenia (Polish: The Sword of Destiny) is the second book in Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher series in terms of internal chronology, although the original Polish edition was published in 1992, before The Last Wish (but after the Wiedźmin short story collection made obsolete by The Last Wish). Some of the individual short stories were first published in the Fantastyka magazine.

The book has been translated into Czech, Russian, Lithuanian, German, Spanish and French. The publisher of the English edition of the Witcher books decided to skip Miecz przeznaczenia and publish Blood of Elves (the first novel in the Witcher Saga) directly after The Last Wish, even though the short stories in this collection take place earlier and introduce some of the characters that become major characters in the novels.

Stories included

 * Granica możliwości (The Border of Possibility)
 * Okruch lodu (A Shard of Ice)
 * Wieczny ogień (Eternal Fire)
 * Trochę poświęcenia (A Little Dedication)
 * Miecz przeznaczenia (The Sword of Destiny)
 * Coś więcej (Something More)
