Magic: The Gathering
Recommended Reading Order - 68 Entries

As a companion to the popular collectible card game, the Magic: The Gathering novels might be overlooked as cheap tie ins. However, many of them are well written (if escapist) stories – good to read even if you don’t play the game! The original four novels (starting with Arena) were among my favorite childhood books. I re-read them recently and happily found they were still quite enjoyable.
