About the series
In the late 1990s, DC Comics expanded its magical corner of the DC Universe with The Books of Magic, a seven-issue miniseries primarily written by John Ney Rieber and Terri Windling. The story, brought to life by artists Peter Snejbjerg, Charles Vess, and Gary Amaro, follows a young magician-in-training as he navigates a world of enchantment and danger. This series stands out for its thoughtful, character-driven approach to fantasy, weaving together myth and modernity in a way that deepened the lore of DC's magical landscape.
