In this case, we're talking about publishing, not writing. The entire saga was published between 1993 and '99. Admittedly, the first short story was published in 1986.
Okay, we admit that the subject of Sapkowski and CD Project RED is very exploited by now. In a nutshell: promises were made, people got offended, and the fruitful cooperation ended with a bad taste and inability to reconcile. First, Sapkowski threw a few of his signature, caustic remarks, and then he decided to take legal action. We can only guess what concessions were made by the parties behind closed doors. However, players often seem to think that it was the writer who "Mistook the stars reflected in a pond at night for those in the sky."
But before it all began; he had done tremendous work as a writer. The fact of the matter is, though, that all of The Witcher books were published between 1993 and 1999.
Six years is a long time. But it's not that long for seven books. The success that followed the publishing is his secret, but it certainly secured him international recognition. Geralt's adventures brought the writer money and fame, and were eventually interpreted in both video games, and a TV show. And a fantastic Polish movie. The game was considered a solid 8,5 or even more.
