Chrestomanci series

The Chrestomanci fantasy series comprises six novels and four short stories.[6]

Publication order The books in order of release:

  1. Charmed Life (1977) – Guardian Children's Fiction Prize; Carnegie Medal commendation; Preis der Leseratten (ZDF Schülerexpress, Germany)
  2. The Magicians of Caprona (1980)
  3. Witch Week (1982)
  4. The Lives of Christopher Chant (1988) – Carnegie Medal commendation
  5. Mixed Magics (2000), short stories published 1982 to 2000
  6. Conrad's Fate (2005)
  7. The Pinhoe Egg (2006) – Mythopoeic Fantasy Award Children's finalist;[3] Locus Award Young Adult Book, 6th place

If the short stories in Mixed Magics are counted separately, the order of release is:

  1. Charmed Life (1977)
  2. The Magicians of Caprona (1980)
  3. Witch Week (1982)
  4. "The Sage of Theare", in Hecate's Cauldron (1982) ed. Susan M. Schwartz
  5. "Warlock at the Wheel", in Warlock at the Wheel (1984) by Jones
  6. "Carol Oneir's Hundredth Dream", in Dragons and Dreams (1986) ed. Jane Yolen et al.
  7. The Lives of Christopher Chant (1988)
  8. "Stealer of Souls", in Mixed Magics (2000) by Jones
  9. Conrad's Fate (2005)
  10. The Pinhoe Egg (2006)

Reading order Diana Wynne Jones herself, however, recommended reading the books in this order:[7]

  1. Charmed Life (1977)
  2. The Lives of Christopher Chant (1988)
  3. Conrad's Fate (2005)
  4. Witch Week (1982)
  5. The Magicians of Caprona (1980)

The short stories in Mixed Magics can be read in any order after that. The Pinhoe Egg can probably be read after The Magicians of Caprona.

Chronological order

Two works feature Christopher Chant as a boy and teen; the others are set during his tenure as Chrestomanci. The narrative sequence is clear for all but two(‡).

  1. The Lives of Christopher Chant
  2. Conrad's Fate
  3. Charmed Life
  4. "Warlock at the Wheel"
  5. "The Sage of Theare"‡
  6. Witch Week‡
  7. The Magicians of Caprona
  8. "Stealer of Souls"
  9. "Carol Oneir's Hundredth Dream"
  10. The Pinhoe Egg

‡ Three of the short stories follow soon after the novels as listed here. On the other hand, "The Sage of Theare" does not have a fictional date or any landmark that relates it closely to another work in the series. (There is some evidence that it predates Witch Week whose own place is uncertain. Both works were published in 1982. In the novel, Chrestomanci observes that he likes to dress nicely and reveals that he has been called away in his dressing gown a couple of times in spite of his care. That may be an allusion to the short story, where he is summoned in pyjamas.)

‡ Witch Week is set sometime after Charmed Life, in which Chrestomanci acquires his legal ward Janet Chant.

Chronicles of Chrestomanci The Chronicles of Chrestomanci series are set in three volumes:

Further Compilations

Dalemark Quartet

In order of internal chronology:

  1. The Spellcoats (1979)
  2. Cart and Cwidder (1975)
  3. Drowned Ammet (1977)
  4. Crown of Dalemark (1993) – Mythopoeic Award, Children's Fantasy[3]

However, when the books were published by Oxford University Press, they were numbered in the order in which they were published (Cart, Ammet, Spellcoats, Crown), and it is possible to read them in this order without any spoilers. (Each of the three other than Crown is a self-contained story with no direct references to the characters or events of the other three books, except for tenuous connections between the characters of Spellcoats, and the folkloric heroes they would be remembered as by the time of the later books. Thusly, minor spoilers can be avoided by reading Spellcoats, the third book, but the order is otherwise irrelevant as long as Crown is read last.)

  • Everard's Ride (the novella) and "The True State of Affairs" are said to be set in the Dalemark Universe, but are not connected to the other characters in the series.[8][9]

Compilations

  • The Dalemark Quartet, Vol. 1: Cart and Cwidder & Drowned Ammet (1977)
  • The Dalemark Quartet, Vol. 2: The Spellcoats & The Crown of Dalemark (1993)
  • The Dalemark Quartet (2003) (Illustrated by Anne Yvonne Gilbert)

Planned sequels Diana Wynne Jones insisted she would not be able to write a sequel to The Crown of Dalemark, until she had worked out what became of Tanaqui (The Spellcoats) after the One had reshaped the land. Unfortunately, any further sequels are unlikely following Diana Wynne Jones' passing in 2011.

Derkholm series

  1. Dark Lord of Derkholm (1998) – Mythopoeic Award, Children's Fantasy[3][10]
  2. Year of the Griffin (2000)

The Tough Guide to Fantasyland (1996) is noted to have similar themes.

Howl's Moving Castle series

  1. Howl's Moving Castle (1986) – Boston Globe–Horn Book Award Fiction runner-up;[1] 2006 Phoenix Award[4]
  2. Castle in the Air (1990) – Mythopoeic Fantasy Award Children's finalist[3]
  3. House of Many Ways (2008) – Mythopoeic Fantasy Award Children's finalist[3]
