Representaion To Books The Young Wizards (Young Wizards #1-5)

Book club collection of So You Want to Be a Wizard; Deep Wizardry; High Wizardry; A Wizard Abroad; The Wizard's Dilemma.

Long before there was Harry Potter, there was Nita Callahan and her friend Kit. Nita doesn't have a highly significant scar on her forehead, nor does she live with abusive adoptive parents. She's a perfectly ordinary girl living with her perfectly amiable family (well, her younger sister, Dairine, is impossible, but that's the way younger sisters are) on Long Island, where she goes to public school and has problems with the class bully.

Then one day she runs across one of those little books that help young people decide on a career: So You Want To Be a Doctor; So You Want To Be a Plumber; So You Want To Be a Wizard...

Nita can't resist. She takes it home; she studies it; she recites the Wizard's Oath she finds inside--and she finds herself launched on a whole series of dangerously magical adventures. They take her to the depths of the ocean, to the moon and beyond, and to other dimensions entirely. She meets and befriends (and sometimes does battle with) wizards of all sorts and species. And every so often she, Kit and Dairine save the universe.

Piece Of Books The Young Wizards (Young Wizards #1-5)

Book 1: So You Want to be a Wizard? Evading the school bullies, Nita takes refuge in the local library. Nostalgia overwhelms her as she browses in the children's section. Running her fingers along a collection of "So You Want to be a . . ." books one snags on her finger: "So You Want to be a Wizard". Nita takes the book home without hesitation and takes the Wizard's Oath printed therein and thus gets thrust into the world of wizardry. Along the way she stumbles upon Kit Rodriguez in the middle

Diane Duane has been a writer of science fiction, fantasy, TV and film for more than thirty years.Besides the 1980's creation of the Young Wizards fantasy series for which she's best known, the "Middle Kingdoms" epic fantasy series, and numerous stand-alone fantasy or science fiction novels, her career has included extensive work in the Star Trek TM universe, and many scripts for live-action and

Good solid 4 star series. I've currently read up to A Wizard of Mars (book 9, I think) as of June 2015.

This is one of those books that I will never get rid of. I enjoyed it as a child and hope to one day share these amazing adventures with my own family.

I enjoyed this, but I have to admit I perfer the more mature viewpoint of this world found in Duane's The Book of Night with Moon series.



The book to read and re-read. I wish SFBC makes a second volume with the new books that Diane Duane wrote recently. Although the synopsis compared this series to Harry Potter, it feels more like Narnia series minus the Christian allegory (although there is some, it's not meant to be didactic, I think).
