About the series
A 2004–2005 DC miniseries, Books of Magick: Life During Wartime follows a young magician named Timothy Hunter into a gritty, near-future London where magic and reality collide amid urban warfare. Written by Si Spencer with art by Dean Ormston, Steve Yeowell, and Duncan Fegredo, this 15-issue run expands the Books of Magick mythos into a darker, more politically charged corner of the DC Universe. It matters as a bold, underappreciated chapter that reimagines the classic fantasy premise through a punk-infused, dystopian lens.
