The Windrose Chronicles is a fantasy series by Barbara Hambly that mixes traditional magic with elements of science fiction. The series centers on characters who cross between a world governed by magic and one driven by technology, raising questions about how the two systems interact and conflict.
The series began with The Silent Tower (1986) and The Silicon Mage (1988), followed by Dog Wizard (1992) and Stranger at the Wedding (1994). Hambly added several shorter works set in the same world from 2009 through 2019. The series is distinguished by its intellectual curiosity about the boundary between science and sorcery.
