Circle of Magic is a tetralogy of fantasy novels by Tamora Pierce, [1] [2] set in Emelan, a fictional realm in a pseudo-medieval and renaissance era. It revolves around four young mages, each specializing in a different kind of magic, as they learn to control their extraordinary and strong powers and put them to use. [3] It is followed by another quartet, The Circle Opens , which takes place four years later, and the standalone book The Will of the Empress , which takes place several years after that. Melting Stones and Battle Magic are also set in the same universe, but they feature only Briar. [4]
