The Witcher novels are ordered in a way that first gives you a taste of Geralt's adventures through 'The Last Wish' and 'Sword of Destiny' with their short story formats. 'The Last Wish' sets the stage, showing us Geralt's nature and some of the key relationships. 'Sword of Destiny' expands on this. Then the series dives into the more continuous saga with 'Blood of Elves' and subsequent books like 'Time of Contempt' where the political and magical turmoil in the world of the Witcher deepens. 'Baptism of Fire' continues the character development and the overarching plot, followed by 'The Tower of Swallows' which moves the story forward, and finally 'The Lady of the Lake' which concludes the main narrative arc.
Yes, the recommended reading order is as follows: start with 'The Last Wish' and then 'Sword of Destiny' for the short story collections that introduce the world and characters. After that, move on to 'Blood of Elves' and continue through the rest of the saga in sequence: 'Time of Contempt', 'Baptism of Fire', 'The Tower of Swallows', and 'The Lady of the Lake'.
The correct order of placing the statues depended on the target of the sacrifice and the occasion. Generally speaking, offerings should be placed in front of or on the left and right sides of the sacrificial object. When offering sacrifices to ancestors or gods at home, offerings could be placed on the altar or in front of the statue. When offering sacrifices in public places or temples, offerings could be placed in designated sacrificial areas. The specific order of offerings may vary according to different religions and traditions.

Yes. Start with 'The Last Wish'. It's full of short stories that are easy to digest and introduce you to the main character, Geralt. Then read 'Sword of Destiny'. These two books will give you a good base before you dive into the main Witcher saga novels.

In my opinion, starting with the main quests in Velen like 'The Bloody Baron' is a great start. It sets the tone and introduces important characters. Then move on to some of the related side quests in the area that expand on the story and characters you've met. After that, head to Skellige and follow the main quests there which often have a more epic and mythical feel.
