The Magic Thief: Home

The Magic Thief: Home, the fourth book in the acclaimed Magic Thief series, finds new wizard Conn back where he started—accused of being a thief.

Despite successfully securing a balance between the competing magics of Wellmet, Conn is not happy. Duchess Rowan has promoted him to ducal magister, but the other wizards see him only as a thief.

But something sinister is brewing, as magicians' locus stones are being stolen and magical spells are going awry. As Conn faces old enemies and powerful magical forces, is he strong enough to save the city he calls home?

Diana Wynne Jones, author of Howl's Moving Castle, praised this middle grade fantasy series filled with magic and wonder, saying of the first book: "I couldn't put it down. Wonderful, exciting stuff."

Wizards and Dragons: Meet Conn, a former thief turned wizard’s apprentice, and his fierce, kitten-sized dragon locus stone, Pip. A Magical Mystery: Magicians’ locus stones are vanishing and spells are going haywire across Wellmet. Conn is the prime suspect, but can he find the real thief before he takes the fall? A Reluctant Hero: The Duchess wants to make him the official ducal magister, but Conn would rather be anywhere than a stuffy palace meeting. Saving the city will have to come first. Found Family: To clear his name, Conn must rely on his wizard master Nevery and his best friend, the Duchess Rowan, proving that home is about the people who trust you.
