Customer Reviews

Series is improving.

John Ney Rieber, The Books of Magic: Transformations (DC Comics, 1998) I've read the first three books of this series and wondered what all the fuss was about, but people have kept telling me how great the series is, so I've kept going. Here, in book four, I start to see what they're talking about. Tim is getting better at magic, but he's consumed with female troubles-- not only the regular women in his life, but now he's got an odd body artist thrown into the mix to make things a bit more complicated. There's not an extraneous story arc, here, really, it's all about Tim and the women in his life, and perhaps that's what gets the quality revved up here in a way it wasn't in books two and three. Whatever the reason, this one's a great deal more readable, and enjoyable, than the two the precede it. *** ½

blows hard!

a very pleasant book,something you can sit down and enjoy

fourth trade paperback of the series

This book is the republication in a paperback portfolio of the issues #21-25 of the books of magic on-going monthy comic book and presents the latest encounter of timothy hunter with death of the endless and the transformation of tim into a cat among other things. The correct sequence of tpbs of the books of magic is this: * books of magic- the miniserie colection published before the montly comic book. * the books of magic bindings- issues #1-4 of the montly comic book. * the books of magic sumonings- issues #5-12. * the books of magic reckonings- issues #13-20. * the books of magic transformations- issues #21-25. If you buy one of the books of magic you'll just ending like me buying all of them, because it's kind of hard not to be complete overwhelmed by the juvenale and simpatetic writing and constrution of the caracters which presents most pleasant british personalities
