Relation Conducive To Books The Worlds of Chrestomanci (Chrestomanci #1-4)
This is an omnibus of the first four books featuring Chrestomanci in varying degrees.Charmed Life: This was a favorite when I was a kid and it was still fun. A lonely boy nicknamed Cat, an awful sister, lots of magic, a castle, alternate worlds and a cat that used to be a fiddle... What's not to love?
Witch Week: This was darker than I expected. Magic at boarding school sounds like fun unless it's full of orphans because it's a magical world where witches are still burned.
The Magicians of Caprona: This one's the opposite - full of magic and love and cats and silliness in an Italian city.
The Lives of Christopher Chant: The Lives of Christopher Chant: This is the childhood that Chrestomanci refers to in Charmed Life. One of the most fun backstories that I've ever read. More magic, awful relatives, boarding schools, cats, and alternate worlds.
Is it me or is Good Reads html display a bit wonky?

Enjoyed this book all four sections. Cat was enchanting in the first. The children of witch week were fun and unpredictable. Tonino the book worm was much like me as a child. And wile the lives of Christopher chant was my least favorite it was still strong.I am convinced along with my family that J.K. Rowling read these. I am sure Chrestomanci influenced her Harry Potter stories.

Excellent fantasy series
As my best friend's fifth-grade favorite, I knew this quartet was going to be enjoyable, but I had no idea. Each story was gripping and delightful. Hard to pick which I liked best!
the original harry potter, and so much better
Some of the books in the quartet are better than other, but if you're jonesing for Harry Potter, this series is an interesting alternative.
