The Born Magic series gathers the Old World content that connects the Boundary Magic books with the Scarlett Bernard and Disrupted Magic storylines, including novellas and the 2020 diary novel. Born Magic: The Diary of Scarlett Bernard is a different kind of entry in the universe. Rather than a conventional narrative, it is written as Scarlett’s own private account of the events of the Old World, which gives Olson room to explore the character’s voice and interior life more directly than the third-person novels allow.
This corner of the Old World is particularly suited to readers who have already spent time with both the LA and Colorado branches of the universe and want to see them in conversation. The Born Magic content is not the best starting point for someone new to the Old World, but for established fans it fills in perspectives and connections that the main series novels only touch on.
