There's a compatibility file you can download from Microsoft to read docx files in older versions of Word (although I don't think you can save anything as docx).
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/open-a-word-2007-document-in-an-earlier-version-of-word-HA010044473.aspx
I downloaded OpenOffice but now get a notification and it's not able to read the file. It says there's something wrong with the file or something happened during download.
I'll try the compatibility file
EDIT: This time I could.. in a way.. open the file. but it's not readable (weird symbols, no text). Something isn't right with the file or doesn't go right with the download. Typical luck of mine. Thank you for helping nonetheless.

Hi Arosus,
Here is the .doc version of the 2 stories:

Hopefully your version of Word should be able to open them.
Cheers

Wow, that was stupid of me.
Unfortunately I don't have the single file for Limits of the Possible on my home PC.
I do however have all of the stories in a single .doc file with Limits of the Possible being the first story:

Enjoy reading )
And for everyone else, progress on chapter 7 is coming along nicely. It should be done soon.

I'm curious if the translation has finished yet I'd like to read the whole thing at once as soon as it's completed.

You are doing very good work, people! Thank you so much!
I won't read The Sword Of Destiny stories yet (neither, of course, Times of Contempt), because winter is coming. It's not easy to have a Sapkowski's piece of work translated and not read it, but i want to keep something good for the cold November nights.
Keep up with your devotion on The Witcher.

I just need to proof read chapter 7 and I'll post it up.
Sorry it took so long. I was sick for a week.
Looks like we are just waiting on chapter 4 then.
Awesome work!
Cheers

Just wanted to add my thanks to all the translators for their hard work. Reading Sword of Destiny really deepened my appreciation of both games, particularly AoK.
Looking forward to Times of Contempt!

I agree
As soon as Times of Contempt gets finished I'm going to jump right in and read it I was originally going to wait for it to come out officially, but after I read the first three books I can't wait that long (I'll still buy it whenever it comes out though )Here it is, as promised.

After reading the Last Wish in english I was eager to read the rest of the stories and saga when I found this thread. I don't speak/read any other language (proper teaching of languages in state schools is a very rare thing in England) and was thinking about having a go at just using the web to translate the next stories.
It is a nice luxury to be able to read the books in my own language and enjoy them fully and just wanted to say thank you to the whole community who have helped piece together the books so far! Amazing job much appreciated
