At the heart of the saga are sisters Sally and Gillian Owens, raised by their eccentric aunts in a close-knit Massachusetts town where the family's reputation for witchcraft is both feared and secretly relied upon. Hoffman moves backward and forward across time, tracing the Owens lineage from its origins to its modern-day heirs. The Rules of Magic introduces the aunts as young siblings coming of age in New York City, learning the cost of the family's Unnamed Arts. Magic Lessons travels back to the seventeenth century, uncovering the story of Maria Owens, the ancestor whose choices set a family curse in motion. The Book of Magic brings the saga to its conclusion, following the youngest generation as they confront the consequences of everything that came before. Across all four novels, Hoffman's blend of lyrical, folkloric prose and grounded emotional honesty gives the Owens women a lasting presence. Themes of love, loss, independence, and fate run through every book, alongside her interest in how women protect one another across generations. Readers who love family sagas with a touch of the uncanny will find this collection rewarding, whether read for the first time or revisited as a complete arc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete four-book paperback collection of Alice Hoffman's Practical Magic series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows the Owens family across centuries, from colonial New England to today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlends magical realism with heartfelt family drama and strong female characters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes the original novel, two prequels, and a satisfying series conclusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA great gift for book clubs and fans of witchy, multigenerational fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback set, perfect for shelf display or sharing with family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Practical Magic — The original novel introduces sisters Sally and Gillian Owens, whose lives in a small Massachusetts town are shadowed by their family's reputation for witchcraft.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Rules of Magic — This prequel follows young Franny, Jet, and Vincent Owens as they come of age in New York City and learn the family's Unnamed Arts.\u003cbr\u003e\nMagic Lessons — Set generations earlier, this origin story traces Maria Owens from an abandoned infant in seventeenth-century England to the woman who shapes the family's fate.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Book of Magic — The saga concludes as the youngest Owens generation faces the weight of the family's history and works to break its long-standing curse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlice Hoffman is an American novelist known for blending everyday life with elements of magic and folklore.
