“We’re in big trouble aren’t we?” — Phoebe
“Yes.” — Piper
“There’s nobody but us standing between this world and one where evil rules.” — Paige
Most of the Charmed books I’ve read which were penned by Diana Gallagher are pretty good, and this one is no exception. She really captures the feel of the show in Dark Vengeance, which despite the ominous title has many lighthearted moments. The story was excellent for a “based on” book and fit very well with the mood and atmosphere of the fun series. It might have been nice if there had been a bit more of Cole in this one, but other than a minor caveat where the author a couple of times mistakenly indicated the wrong sister within a swiftly moving scene, there’s very little to complain about and much to enjoy.
Cole is dealing with the loss of his demon half, Belthazor, and trying to adjust to being human as this one opens. He’s taking a sabbatical to fish and figure out his new life, leaving Phoebe to pursue new web design classes as she tries to find a vocation which won’t interfere with all her duties saving innocents. There still exists some friction — not to mention suspicion — of Cole by Paige, because of the whole Phoebe-not-telling-anyone-about-Cole’s “other” side initially.
Meanwhile, the newest Charmed One is supplementing her regular job by helping Doug Wilson at the homeless shelter. Paige has become attached to Stanley Addison and she is attempting to get the older man into a permanent home of his own. Piper on the other hand, is stressing about bills and her workload between home and P-3. Things are about to get a little weird for all of them, however. Piper gets the giggles after handing a flute to the band she’s auditioning for P-3. Paige suddenly feels exhausted after a new shelter worker named Kevin with whom she feels a spark accidentally touches her with his cane. And Phoebe goes for a cup of coffee after class with a female student and when she comes into contact with the girl’s bracelet, she gets a vision, and feels woozy.
Back home there’s more amusing trouble, with a mischievous gremlin in the plumbing that Leo can’t seem to get rid of. Suddenly minor annoyances like Phoebe’s sudden short-term memory loss become a full-blown worry when each of the Charmed Ones loses some of her power. Phoebe can barely levitate, Piper can’t freeze things, and Paige can only sort-of-kind-of orb things. What’s going on?
We find out quickly, along with the sisters, that it all has to do with an old battle between the Sol´agath clan of good witches and the Dor´chacht clan of evil magic in which the Charmed Ones’ descendants won. But now, thanks to hiding their magic, the bad guys are planning round two. Soon, whether they like it or not, the sisters will be transported to the Valley of Ages to battle their counterparts. But their foes have found a way to diminish the power of the Halliwell sisters, thereby ensuring a different outcome this time. Leo explains the gravity should the sisters lose the battle:
“And since there will be no benevolent magic or Charmed Ones to protect the innocent, humanity will ultimately succumb to the influences of evil and embrace the darker side of human nature.”
I kept thinking Cole would return early from his fishing trip and affect the outcome somehow, but it played out differently. It was very well done, both on the domestic side and the magical solution side. Even Leo’s belated answer to the gremlin problem was quite fun. Dark Vengeance felt very much like a good episode of the series, and was well written and executed. Save for that final scene in the Valley of Ages, this one had more of a domestic vibe with the personal life of the Halliwells front and center. There was a lot of nice interaction and it felt like a short novel rather than just a slight story put together to cash in on the popularity of the series. Very enjoyable for fans, a nice way to revisit the popular series.

This story was definitely not my cup of tea. It was not interesting if you ask me and I am very glad it is over and I can continue on.
The mistakes about which sister was were became quite annoying. Especially when it was for example Paige that was written down but it had to be Piper and Paige wasn't even in the whole scene.
The cover theory for this one is a no go since all three of them were the victim. Which is a possibility since they are all almost on the same level but than again Phoebe is still up front.

Een zoveelste foto van de 3 - weliswaar mooie - dames die de hoofdpersonages uit het boek vertolken in de tv-serie waar het boek van afgeleid is. Op de achtergrond iets onduidelijks maar wel dreigend.
Daarmee pas de cover perfect in de reeks en zal het onmiddellijk de aandacht van de liefhebbers trekken.
De drie zusjes zitten, elk omwille van een andere reden, in een dipje. Op dezelfde dag verandert dat. Ze ontmoeten elk een persoon die daar verandering in brengt. Maar dat is slechts van korte duur.
Phoebe gaat op computercursus maar verliest haar korte-termijn geheugen. Paige trekt zich het lot aan van een dakloze oude man en kan plots haar ogen niet meer open houden. Piper neemt een nieuwe band in dienst voor P3 en verliest de controle over haar emoties.
Toch vinden ze geen spoor van demonische inmenging, ook niet als Leo De Wijzen raadpleegt.
Als ze merken dat hun krachten (met een derde) verminderd zijn worden ze echt ongerust. Zeker nadat er bij Paige en Phoebe na enige tijd opnieuw een derde verdwijnt. Ondertussen hebben ze via heel veel logisch speurwerk en combinaties van heel erg onduidelijke aanwijzingen toch kunnen deduceren wat er aan de hand is. Het lot van de hele mensheid staat op het spel.
Een belangrijk eerste deel van het boek is dan ook aangename lektuur over het huiselijke leven van de meisjes, hun bezigheden en kibbelarijen. De lezer merkt veel sneller dan de meisjes zelf wat er aan de hand is en leeft dan ook mee als ze voor een schier onmogelijke opdracht staan, waarbij ze het ook nog eens moeten doen zonder een belangrijk deel van hun krachten. En dat wanneer de De Macht van Drie broodnodig is. Het wordt zelfs echt grappig als de schrijfser verhaalt hoe de meisjes hun beperking trachten tegen te gaan. Phoebe stopt alles in haar nieuwe laptop zodat die in plaats van haar falende geheugen kan gebruiken, Piper lacht aanvankelijk continu en huilt later constant, Paige slaapt terwijl Piper er alles aan doet om haar wakker te houden.
Op dat moment verandert het verhaal ook van het leuke naar het gewone griezelige vol aktie.
Een ingenieuze plot en een bijzonder zwaar onderwerp dat door de schrijfster weer in haar postieve, haast luchthartige stijl gebracht wordt - dat maakt het weer erg vlot leesbaar en zeker geen zware kost. Het grootste deel van de beschikbare pagina's wordt besteed aan de tijd die de meisjes samen doorbrengen, een ander deel zal ze individueel volgen en de contacten met de vertegenwoordigers van het Kwaad illustreren, een kleiner deel geeft de samenkomsten van de drie kwade krachten weeer en het laaste stuk gaat over de strijd tussen goed en kwaad die na 3000 jaar onderbreking hernomen wordt.
Uiteraard is er weer sprake van heel veel spanning, een flinke dosis humor en, enkel bij Paige deze keer, wat romantiek.
Als het boek naar zijn climax toeloopt komen er toch ook enkele onwaarschijnlijkheden in het verhaal naar voren, dat stoort een beetje maar doet niets af aan de leesbaarheid of het leesplezier.
Wat blijft hangen is dat zelfs in een waterdicht systeem toch nog achterpoortjes te vinden zijn... al werkt dat naar twee kanten.

Weer een boekje over the charmed ones. Dit boekje las weer weg als een aflevering van de tv-serie.
July 9, 2025
Rounded up to 3 stars.
Though not canon, set in Season 4 after Cole has lost his demon powers and become human.
Still hard to read scenes with Cole but his part is minimal in the story.
Since her newly human boyfriend is going to take some "me" time going away, Phoebe tries her hand at taking classes on Web Design at the college where she was going to the past seasons. Another instance of Phoebe trying to find a job to help out.
Paige is still working her social worker job but has recently started volunteering at a homeless shelter/soup kitchen. She is fixated on getting housing for one particular older gentleman there named Stanley.
Piper is busy being oldest sister, P3 manager and starting to get a little overworked despite Leo and Phoebe offering to help.
The back of the book spoils a few things, so I don't mind doing it too.
Piper auditions a band called With a Vengeance to play at her club and the leader of the band is a blonde woman named Karen. They play Celtic rock music and Karen plays the flute.
Phoebe meets a girl named Kate in her class and she is blonde and wears an old Celtic bracelet.
Paige meets a guy named Kevin at the shelter. He is blond and carries around a silver cane with a Celtic design on it.
Piper starts feeling extremely giddy one day and then bawling her eyes out the next day while her freezing powers only cause slow motion. Phoebe starts losing her short-term memory that she cannot see visions and remember them until it begins to diminish her long-term memories as well.
Poor Paige can barely stay awake and when she tries to orb an object to her, it is delayed and then destroyed. Leo goes to the Elders to find out information, but they have no idea what is going on with The Charmed Ones or their powers. The Book of Shadows mentions an evil trinity will awaken and need champions of virtue to defend the world.
Three thousand years ago, Halliwell ancestors fought against an ancient Celtic clan and the last of them are Karen, Kevin and Kate.
Evil Power of Three and eventually, Charmed the show did it better.
A few aspects of the story I like but it is easy to figure out who is behind the magical mischief way too early. Another plot thread weaved into the story that makes no sense here but is done better come Season 6 is...gremlins.
Yes, Gremlins and not the movie ones but the tear apart plane ones who are going after the Halliwell Manor plumbing. It is only one and Piper in her mood swing decides to name it Gilbert.
(beat)
Dark Vengeance is anything but an apt title for this book.

These three people Karen, Kate, and Kevin are draining the sisters' powers to get vengeance on an ancient battle that their people was supposed to lose however they cheated. And now these three are back to finish taking their magical objects and draining the sisters powers with each touch part of their power is taken away.
Phoebe is losing her memory as well as her powers, Paige can't stay awake, Piper is emotional on top her powers going. First can't stop laughing then crying. She figures it out though seeing Phoebe and Paige both get hit with the nagov drain in one evening at the manor.
On top all this there is also a gremlin wrecking havoc on them. Leo and the elders don't know a lot because of the way they are basically human instead of their old evil selves.
When they get transported to the battle area Paige comes up with a solution and Phoebe had some how remember something long enough to write it down earlier. Their ancestors were Dor'chacht and the bad ones were Shen'arch who cheated death and Cole said the underworld wasn't happy
I really loved how they remembered by end they still had their wits when all seemed lost. At times it did get annoying and repetitive about Phoebe not remembering. Other than that loved this.

Yet another amazing Charmed story I wish we could have seen on screen but also thrilled we get so many stories that almost feel secret to be shared with only us bookworms.
I loved the contrast of this one, not having your classic monster/demon of the week as the antagonist, instead our ‘baddies’ were an evil trio who let’s face it, clearly knew they were no match for the sisters at full power, hence the need to strip of them of 75% of them before they could bare to face them in battle.
The absence of Cole was very convenient in this one, as mentioned in the final chapter, his underworld knowledge would have taken out a lot of the lead up to the battle and the suspense of not knowing who they were up against.
Great final battle as always, loved that Paige was the one to figure it all out and just shows the Power of Three are so much more than their powers.

A good stand-alone story with my favourite witches. However, I found Piper's change of emotions quite lame. I know it was part of the plot, but TV show Piper would have somehow overcome this. I did like that Cole was missing almost the entire time (I don't really like him :D). Paige struggling to stay awake and Phoebe forgetting everything was hilarious :D
I did notice some mistakes in the book such as the author showing the scene through Piper's POV, but had written down Paige instead. There was some head-hopping occasionally - that doesn't usually bother me, it's just something that I've noticed in a chapter or two. Overall, a good read, but Piper is stronger than the way she was portrayed here. Hence why, three stars for this book from me.

Ein gutes Buch über die Zauberhaften. Die verzauberung der Drei wurde gut beschrieben und dargestellt, auch blieb es immer spannend mit gelegentlichem Witz, wenn man den maroden Zustand der Schwestern bedenkt. Während Phoebe scheinbar an Demenz erkrankt ist und alles Vergisst, wird Piper von Heul - und Lachanfällen geplagt, Paige hingegen ist unendlich müde und so wurschteln sich die drei durch den Alltag und versuchen das Rätsel um diesen Zustand zu lösen und das möglichst noch bevor der Feind zuschlägt.

"Slow orb, short freeze and memory loss", Piper said. P.57
The Halliwell witches have to battle great evil AND a gremlin infestation without being able to rely on their powerful magical abilities.
Hilarious and entertaining just like an episode on the show.
"Gilbert!" Piper gasped. "Whos gilbert?" Paige asked. "Piper named the gremlin,"Leo explained. S.85

Ik ben een super groot fan van de televisie serie, maar ik weet niet zeker wat ik vind van dit boek. Ik had misschien niet moeten beginnen bij het vijfde boek, maar ik vond het verhaal heel voorspelbaar.

in diesem buch ging es um alte mächte und gewonheiten und wie man sie nutzen kann in dem hier und jetzt. was mich aber etwas gestört hat das es hier und da lang atmig war und deswegen "nur" 4 sterne. ansonsten war und ist das buch als solche ganz gut.

I found this one to be a bit of a snooze - with apologies to Paige! ;)

Bland and a little wacky. The characterization felt off, too. The premise was promising but this disappointed me greatly

I love these Charmed stories!!
Having loved the TV series, I'm really enjoying making my way through these series.

Somehow, I didn't like this book from the beginning until almost the ending. The Charmed ones were kinda boring because of what was going on and it was only from the point at which they knew what was going on that I began to actually enjoy it. To bad but the ending was nice and other Charmed books are still to come and I think/hope that lots of them will be more fun then this one was at the beginning.
