About the author
Paul Ruditis
113 books98 followersPaul Ruditis also writes under the name P.J. Ruditis.
I was born and raised in Philadelphia where I lived a typical childhood with a far more interesting fantasy life. I mean, how many other eight year olds were sticking their Star Wars action figures in Ziploc bags filled with water and putting them in the freezer to recreate the ice planet of Hoth? (Really? That many? Never mind.)
After college, I moved to Los Angeles and was very lucky to get a job as a page at Paramount Pictures only months after I got into town. I worked as a tour guide and usher, and I performed temp office work around the lot.
Eventually, I took a position working in the studio's licensing department where I quickly worked my way up to middle management.
After a while, one of my friends in the publishing industry offered me the opportunity to write a Buffy, The Vampire Slayer short story for a collection she was editing. Well, when I heard how little money I could make as a writer, I immediately quit my job to try it full time. (Stupid, I know, but it kind of worked for me.)
I started out by writing books based on such wonderful TV shows as Star Trek, Roswell, and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch. I have since written over 30 books based some of the best shows on TV, adding The West Wing, Alias, and Prison Break to that ever growing list.
While I continue to work on these media tie-ins, I have also been focused more on my own original fiction, including my teen series DRAMA! and the Simon Pulse Romantic Comedy Love, Hollywood Style.

Charmed is one of my favourite TV shows ever, so when I saw this as a freebie on Amazon, I knew I had to read it. And from the fan's POV, I'm giving it 3,5 stars :) I'm not sure if I would recommend this comic to anyone who hasn't watched the show and is interested in it, because it reveals a whole lot of details and spoilers from all 8 seasons. However, if you've watched the show, I think it should be good.
I quite liked that they made the overall design look like Charmed's Book of Shadows, and the quotes from the very last episode at the end made for a nice touch, and made me feel a little nostalgic. If I ever have a chance to read the following comics, I might give them a go.

Booktube-A-Thon 2017!
Challenge #3: Finish a book in on day. (45 minutes 😉).
This "book" was heartwarming and the perfect resume of the first eight years of the charmed ones. It's a resume version of the actual Book of Shadows and a great introduction to what this new year will bring to the charmed ones.

Great for die-hard fans.
Love the drawings, descriptions and writing. The writing is a little small but you can just zoom in. Great for any die-hard fan of the series. Looks just like the book of shadows but after the finale the show where the charmed ones have added to it. Doesn't have all the spells etc but I really enjoyed looking at it 😀

Interesting for a free read
As the title says, it’s an interesting read for free. Although I and glad I didn’t waste money and Would never pay for this low budget flash back of the tv series.

Good book for does who want to know more about the charmed show if some did not watched the show when it aired or a fresh reminder for does that are going to start the comics.

I enjoyed this book a lot. It recapped on the eight seasons of the show, the characters, worlds, demons. I loved that each page looked like you were reading from the book of shadows.

A look into the Charmed one's book of Shadows that neatly recaps the story so far.

Better to watch the series
This was just a summary of the series in a nutshell. But its better to watch than read. Even though the series is off the air I'd read the next chapter.
