Accidental Familiar Complete Box Set: Books 1 - 5 Plus Prequel
The Complete Accidental Familiar Series (including the prequel) all between two virtual covers!When Aunt Opal became the lead suspect in a murder investigation, I needed access to magic. Fast.
The trouble was, not only was I the youngest witch in the Ravenswind family, I was also the one with the least power. Actually, to say I had any power at all would be an overstatement. Magic seemed to have passed me by at birth.
There was a way, however, to possibly change that. Aunt Opal had been trying to get me to claim a familiar for years now. Familiars were known to help enhance a witch's magic.
So why was I dragging my feet on getting one? Well, mostly because cats make me sneeze like crazy. But hey, what's a little sneezing in the midst of a family crisis? One makes sacrifices for family, right?
So I found a little black kitty at an animal shelter. And wonder of wonders, he didn't make me sneeze. That was the good news.
The bad news? He wasn't exactly what he seemed to be.
The Accidental Familiar Complete Box Set includes Books One through Five as well as the series prequel. Grab a chair, a tall glass of soda, and the cat. It's time for a Paranormal Cozy Mystery binge read.

Love it!!
This series has everything a paranormal cozy mysteries lover can hope for. A great series of mysteries, a fantastic main storyline, lovable characters, magic, cats and action. It has given me the vibe of the best Buffy episodes. Highly recommended!

~ Familiar Beginnings (Accidental Familiar: The Prequel) -- You don't need powers to be a witch or to be persecuted as evil. Things people will do to those they don't understand and make no effort to understand because of their perceived religious beliefs. Not realizing that GOD is love and inclusion. One of His biggest no-nos was not to judge. That's His job. Amie understands that even being a witch, a latent witch at that, doesn't make you less than, especially when using your intelligence to puzzle things out. Sure, having powers can make life more interesting, but it might not be all that beneficial to you or your cause.
~ All Too Familiar (Accidental Familiar Book 1) -- Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it... and boy, did Amie get it in spades. Poor Opie, seeing is believing. Makes you wonder what this says about his profession and his relationship with Amie. Good thing we have several more books to get us answers to all this madness.
~ Relatively Familiar (Accidental Familiar Book 2) -- "Ask and ye shall receive." When you seek only the simplest of things, it may come to you in abundance. Amie is going to find that out next. This has been a rollercoaster of a ride. And the family dynamic will take some getting used to. Wow, if this story isn't a PSA for prejudice and biases, I don't know what is. We all have to live together in this world, and I don't believe that God and the Goddess make mistakes. Some of us are just born with gifts, and those that are may be different from others. Wouldn't this world be a very boring, primitive place if we were all the same? Monotony is not my favorite place to be. I like diversity, mysteries of the unknown, and getting to know other cultures...their place, people, etc. How can we evolve if we refuse to learn and accept those around us? Just take a look at all the inventions and strides we've made. We wouldn't have been able to do it without diversity--in all things.
~ Un-Familiar Magic (Accidental Familiar Book 3) -- Oh, no...say it ain't so! Conflicted is right. It's that whole gray area, you know, nothing is as black and white as it's portrayed. You must be open to ALL blessings. Those that don't go in your favor may help you down the road later, whether directly or indirectly. If you don't have the bad, how can you appreciate the good? Yeah, I know, the bad sometimes really sucks. Keep the faith.
~ Home Familiar Home (Accidental Familiar Book 4) -- Well, you don't see that every day--murders, hauntings, thefts, and other crimes. Although with witches, it can increase your odds of experiencing them all. Well, perhaps not the thefts so much, but everything else is fair game. Now on to the main event! See you at the end. We should look into getting a protection spell for ourselves. You never know what might show up in this series finale next.
~ A Familiar Tail (Accidental Familiar Book 5) -- Well, well, well... How is it that some factions think they are above others and can regulate all, even knowing that they, themselves, serve a higher being, can judge others, and threaten oversight because they are scared of a more powerful mortal being than themselves? Just because you are of a belief in one God, you believe you have the right to police those of another and the powers She grants them? Council or no, but that is not your station. What if the shoe were on the other foot? How would you like to be looked at and scrutinized under a microscope because others see your God-given power as a threat to them? Check your superiority complex at the door.

Predictable and pretty basic. Heroine is also way too go with the flow and doesn't question anything -
The accidental familiar concept has been done better by Honor Raconteur (Familiar and the Mage series).

Witches warlocks familiars and more oh my
Family of witches generations long. 5 great books lots of action and witchy stuff too. I love these books they were hard to put down I couldn't wait till I could get to the next. Amie, Ruby, Opal and all the rest of the magical family including the familiars ( cats and one little dog). These books are funny and mysterious at the same time. I can't wait to read the next in the series.

Amethyst, Ruby, Opal, Sapphire, and even a mention for Pearl
I had read each of these books in the past. It was so much fun to begin again and refresh all those stories from start to finish. Well, happily, only to the finish of this series. Team Destiny continues, and even Patricia (the law and order council member) gets her stories told.
This series more than stands on its own, though, and I highly recommend it.

This is a terrific series with interesting character development and plot lines that will have you reading for hours. Actually, I read the books individually before this set was available and when I say “read”, I mean that I binge-read several of books without stopping because I just had to know what happened next.

WOW!! Such a clever, but very convoluted story.
I recommend this book to any reader who likes a good who'd one fit mystery. I liked that all the clues were not given at the beginning. I liked how well-defined the characters were. I am off to find the series to follow this book. Happy reading.

Great reading
This box set kept me reading for a couple of days there was one or two grammatical problems but the only reason I only gave it four stars was the prequel was at the end it would have made more sense to have it at the beginning so you could see the part everyone played loved it

Great read
I would have preferred the prequel to be the first book but maybe that's just me. These are stories about the Ravens wind family and how it expanded. Each book keeps you guessing as to who did it. And each satisfied you with the ending. I hope there will be more Ravens wind stories as the family is fascinating. You will enjoy this set.

I loved this series
The stories are well written and well paced. I really enjoyed the characters development and slowly learning more about their background stories. I'm really looking forward to reading the next series my Ms. White.

I enjoyed the series and the prequel. There was a lot of things going on and I was absorbed from the beginning. The only complaint I really have is the repetitiveness of the character building. The same thing over and over about character quirks.

Excellent read.
Excellent read. Suspense, humor, love, family, and aventure.
Easy read. Keeps the intrest level up and not so wordy in the descriptions that one wants to skip over them.

Unique story line and interesting characters
Love the characters and story line. The characters are unique and relatable (in some aspects). The story line is different in a good way. I am looking forward to reading more about all of the characters.

witchy and great
Absolutely loved this work. I was instantly captivated by the story. The gemstone coven is a storyline I have to follow, especially to see how far Amie grows in her new found amazing abilities.

A good, fun series
This series was a fast, fun read. Lots of great family moments. The friends, family & pets/familiars made me laugh, and tear up at times, but they kept me smiling throughout. I'm looking forward to the spinoff.

I finally gave up. The series was okay, just didn't grab me.

Great
I read the boxed set of the first 5 novels and loved them all. Amie is not an ordinary which and the cast of characters with her are all extraordinary.

spelling mistakes & out of order books?
Was hooked until the last book started before the events of the previous book. Few spelling and grammar mistakes as well.
