The School of Necessary Magic takes place at a magical academy within the Oriceran Universe. The eight books follow students learning to control their powers while dealing with threats both inside and outside the school walls.

The series titles describe the protagonist’s growth: Dark Is Her Nature, Bright Is Her Sight, Strong Is Her Hope, and so on. It is a coming-of-age story wrapped in urban fantasy, and it connects to the wider Oriceran world through shared characters and storylines. The Raine Campbell spin-off picks up where some of these threads leave off.
