Series
Witch & Wizard
James Patterson, Jill Dembowski, Cate Tiernan, Emily Chenoweth & Ned Rust · 5 novels · 2009–2014
Witch & Wizard, by James Patterson and Gabrielle Charbonnet (with later co-authors joining subsequent volumes), follows a brother and sister suddenly arrested by a totalitarian regime that has outlawed exactly the magical powers they didn't know they had. Discovering their abilities inside a system built to hunt them down, the two have to figure out how to survive and fight back across the five-book run. It's dystopian YA fantasy that leans on a surveillance-state premise more than a traditional magic school setup.
