Magic can be black or white and those with the power to control it can conjure up demons, play with forces of nature and mystify the innocent. The stories in this collection unlock the magicians' secrets, reveal wonders and dare you to enter their world.
Enter worlds where magic works, where people fly and with a flick of a thumb travel through time. Enter the magicians' circle where anything happens. In these worlds a magician can control natural forces and demonic beings by supernatural means, unleashing powers that can destroy, or they can perform cures and wonders that will astonish.
The stories in this book of spells are by great storytellers who will allow you inside their enchanted circle - but you may never get out. From Charles Dickens and Philip Pullman's wizardry adventures to Jacqueline Wilson and Roald Dahl's stories of magic at work today, as well in the many other stories, you will meet magicians, old and new, good and bad, mysterious and enchanted.
The magic is waiting to be discovered.
