One of my all time favorite witch movies. I loved how they made it more of a natural magic instead of unrealistic magic such as the magic they use in harry potter stories. Its a movie I can watch repeatedly and still love every second of it.

A well made ending for a magical story. All movies from this series are worth watching. Acting, world, magic, everything is on point.

Cool magic system with ok Characters
The characters are obviously smart people however they often make stupid mistakes, which can be frustrating. The magic system is very well developed and Lev's explanation of Circumstance is very well thought out.
  

"Jim Steinmeyer is the ultimate authority on the history of magic. In this book he offers a peak behind the curtain of one of the most beloved acts of magic, all while maintaining a respect for the magician’s code. A fascinating and entertaining read, especially if you are interested in magic."
