The Circle (2011)	comment	The Circle (Swedish title Cirkeln) is a Swedish young adult fantasy novel written by Sara Bergmark Elfgren and Mats Strandberg, published in 2011. It is the first part of the Engelsfors trilogy. It was published in the US in 2013.The novel takes place in a fictional rural town in Bergslagen in central Sweden and follows a group of six teenage girls, Minoo Falk Karimi, Rebecka Molin, Anna-Karin Nieminen, Ida Holmström, Vanessa Dahl and Linnéa Wallin. They have little in common until they discover that they all are witches chosen to save the world from an otherworldly evil. The authors have cited Twin Peaks, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Supernatural as some of their main influences. The book was quite a big success in Sweden, being nominated for the prestigious annual literature prize "Agustpriset" in the young adult category. It has been sold in over 20 other countries. A film adaptation was announced but was halted due to conflicts between the authors and the production company Filmlance, who wanted to make certain changes to the script that the authors felt uncomfortable about. In 2013, this was cleared up as Benny Andersson (of ABBA fame) stepped in and bought the rights from Filmlance. The film was directed by Levan Akin, with a script by Levan Akin and Sara Bergmark Elfgren. Filming started in early 2014, and was released in 2015 to largely positive reviews but lackluster box office performance.The sequel, Fire, was released in 2012 and the third and final part, The Key, in 2013. There is also "Tales from Engelsfors": a graphic novel by different artists that fill the gaps and previewed two scenes from "The Key". The graphic novel is canon and most prominently features the first appearance of Walter in a segment showing Adriana's backstory. It also introduced Richard in a segment about Olivia.Be advised that since the series has a lot of shocking twists, subversions and surprises, there are a ton of spoilers below.

And Matilda claims that if the protectors win, they'll eventually get bored with ruling the world and destroy it anyway.

Everything he does is because the Council tells him it's the right thing and he is devoted to them to the point of fanaticism. Since the Council has tried to cover up their mistake by passing off The Prophecy as one among many that were not taken that seriously. If they had not, Alexander would have likely helped the Chosen Ones. When he comes to Engelsfors, he thinks of himself as cop investigating a crime. Viktor by default since he is just doing what Alexander told him and starts to doubt the Council's position the more he finds out.

That is not going to end well considering the authors are fans of Joss Whedon. A more humorous example, with shades of Take That!: The Council is plenty elitist and big on might-makes-right, but the other Council witches still mock Felix for reading Atlas Shrugged (and the fact that he does is an early hint that he's insecure and not as powerful as the others).

Ida can't decide when she is possessed or gets her visions; Linnea also can't turn her ability off when she first gets it; Vanessa keeps turning invisible by mistake. But the worst of it goes to Anna-Karin. At first it seems like she has the best control, since she is the first to use her powers voluntarily and does it the most...until the effects start to get incredibly out of hand. (Like her mind-controlled mother putting her bare hands in boiling water because she was told to wash the silver.) And when she tries to stop, things just get worse.

The protectors can see a lot of the future, but not everything, and their plans are often interrupted, such as by the demons managing to kill some of the Chosen Ones. Later subverted in an entirely different way: the protectors are more or less omniscient, and everything that happened, including the people who died, was necessary for them to achieve their goal of creating a better world. It's just that the protectors' idea of "a better world" is one without The Evils of Free Will.

When that invariably fails, they destroy those worlds instead since they can't tolerate imperfection. On a more human scale, any character in series who seems to be too squeaky-clean tends to turn out to be a villain. note Of course, so does anyone who openly admits to being morally ambiguous. It's not a very cheerful series.

The Circle (2011) / int_cf1b706e	comment	Flat-Earth Atheist: The Council is a secret organisation that governs the use of magic worldwide. Nonetheless, most of its members don't believe in such silly superstitions as demons, protectors, portals and Chosen Ones. Even though the Council was originally founded to assist Chosen Ones. Even though they still use the Book of Patterns, which allows communication with the protectors, as a means of divining the future.

Almost everyone pretends to believe her, too, giving an early demonstration that Engelsfors is full of this trope.

The Circle (2011) / int_df410b77	comment	Decoy Protagonist: Rebecka is charismatic and responsible while at the same being messed up enough note (she has an eating disorder) to fit in with the other Chosen Ones, and everything points to her being the focus character, including the protectors telling her outright that it's her destiny to be The Leader. Then she gets killed and her geeky best friend has to try to take charge instead, despite being much less suited for it.
