Overview: Magic is fading fast in the Ununited Kingdom. The uppity and vain sorcerers might think delivering pizzas by magic carpet or rewiring a house is beneath their talent, but fifteen-year-old Jennifer Strange, who manages an employment agency for magicians, knows better than to turn up her nose at any job they can get. And then the visions start, predicting the death of the world’s last dragon at the hands of an unnamed Dragonslayer. All signs point to Jennifer—and Big Magic.

#1 – The Last Dragonslayer
In the good old days, magic was indispensable—it could both save a kingdom and clear a clogged drain. But now magic is fading: drain cleaner is cheaper than a spell, and magic carpets are used for pizza delivery. Fifteen-year-old foundling Jennifer Strange runs Kazam, an employment agency for magicians—but it’s hard to stay in business when magic is drying up. And then the visions start, predicting the death of the world’s last dragon at the hands of an unnamed Dragonslayer. If the visions are true, everything will change for Kazam—and for Jennifer. Because something is coming. Something known as . . . Big Magic.
#2 – The Song of the Quarkbeast
King Snodd IV of the Kingdom of Hereford has realized that the power of magic has untold financial possibilities, and the man who controls magic controls almost anything. To this end, he has appointed as Official Court Sorcerer the odious Blix at Industrial Magic, one of only two Houses of Enchantment left in the world. With Blix’s willing assistance, only one person stands between King Snodd and his plans for power and riches.
Jennifer Strange, the sixteen-year-old acting manager of Kazam, runs the only other House of Enchantment. She doesn’t care for King Snodd or his plans for magic. Ancient decree dictates that Kazam can refuse Snodd’s demands, but Blix challenges Kazam to a contest: the first team to rebuild their half of Hereford’s collapsed 12th-century bridge gains control of the other’s House of Enchantment.
With only one functioning Wizard and her faithful assistant, Tiger Prawns, Jennifer must use every ounce of ingenuity to derail King Snodd’s plans. It may involve a trip on a magic carpet at the speed of sound to the Troll Wall, the mysterious Transient Moose and a powerless sorceress named Once Magnificent Boo. Only one thing is certain: Jennifer Strange will not relinquish the noble powers of magic without a fight.
#3 – The Eye of Zoltar
The Mighty Shandar is back! The most powerful wizard in the world returns to the unUnited Kingdom after failing to solve that pesky Dragon Problem, determined to get rid of the last two remaining dragons once and for all. If he fails, he must return the fee he was paid: eighteen dray-weights of gold, which at current prices is approximately eight trillion moolah (enough to pay for the Fifth Troll War and make a down payment on the sixth). As Shandar’s agent, Miss D’argento, affirms: “The Mighty Shandar doesn’t do refunds.”
It shouldn’t be a problem for this Wizardus Maximus, but for one thing: a small House of Enchantment named Kazam stands in his way, led by acting manager Jennifer Strange . . .
