Series
Pure Dead Trilogy
Debi Gliori · 3 novels · 2001–2003
Debi Gliori's Pure Dead Magic opens a comic fantasy series set at a crumbling Scottish castle home to the Strega-Borgia family: father Luciano goes missing, mother Baci struggles with her witchcraft lessons, and children Titus and Pandora contend with a sinister new nanny while chaos multiplies around them. Pure Dead Wicked and Pure Dead Brilliant keep the family juggling magic, gadgets and gangsters. Gliori plays the household's supernatural mishaps for slapstick as much as suspense.
