Young Wizards	comment	An ongoing series of novels by Diane Duane (the first of which was published in 1983), set in a fictional analogue of the modern world where wizards are champions of "The Powers That Be" and given the ability to rewrite the universe using the Speech — essentially reprogramming the universe and thus performing wizardry. Wizards can literally be anything (animals, robots, etc.) and can talk to anything. No, seriously, anything.Their main duty is to travel through time and space to battle the Lone Power, the evil Power who created Entropy and Death, usually involving them heroically sacrificing their lives. (In fact, halfway through the first novel it is explicitly stated that someone usually has to die this way in order to defeat the Lone Power — although it doesn't have to be a wizard.)Notable because magic is presented as an advanced scientific principle, rather similar to the way Fullmetal Alchemist presents its alchemy. The series also includes lots of extraterrestrials, trips to other planets and moons, and a tendency to explain all mythology as being representative or descriptive of the actions of wizards and the Powers and all language as having been evolved from a natural innate ability to "speak" the Speech. This has the effect of making the YW series feel a lot more like a hybrid of semi-hard Science Fiction and mystic fantasy than it does pure action-adventure fantasy. The books in the main series are: So You Want To Be A Wizard (1983): Nita Callahan and Kit Rodriguez become wizards and must use their newfound abilities to defend New York City, Earth, and possibly even the Universe itself from a supernatural threat. Deep Wizardry (1985): Nita and Kit discover that non-humans can be wizards too, and must work with Cetacean (whale) wizards to defeat a scheme to devastate the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. High Wizardry (1990): Nita's precocious little sister Dairine becomes a wizard, and major fireworks ensue. A Wizard Abroad (1993): Nita travels to Ireland and finds out that wizardry is somewhat different there than in the United States. The Wizard's Dilemma (2001): Nita's mother develops a serious illness, and Nita enters dangerous wizardly waters in search of a cure. A Wizard Alone (2002): Nita and Kit must find a way to help a new Wizard, who is autistic, complete his wizardly "Ordeal" and gain full access to his abilities. Wizard's Holiday (2003): Nita and Kit go on "vacation" to an alien world which turns out to have a unique and knotty problem; meanwhile, back on Earth, Dairine has to cope with three alien "exchange student" wizards who have come to visit. Wizards at War (2005): A new danger appears, threatening all of Wizardry itself. Nita and Kit and Dairine gather all the other young wizards they've met, as well as some new ones, to find a way to restore the power of Wizardry before it's too late. A Wizard of Mars (2010): There may be signs of life on Mars, but while investigating, Kit begins to act strangely. Games Wizards Play (2016): Nita, Kit and Dairine coach contestants in a wizardly contest to win a year-long apprenticeship with Earth's Planetary Wizard, but all does not go as planned.The first nine books were rereleased as New Millennium editions from 2012–2019, creating a more cohesive timeline among other changes.In the years-long gap between the publication A Wizard of Mars and Games Wizards Play, three shorter pieces were written and published digitally though Duane's own website, collected in 2015 for both digital and online-only print-on-demand in the volume Interim Erranty. They form a holiday trilogy being set around Halloween, Christmas and Valentine's Day respectively. They include: Not On My Patch - It's Halloween, a day where many wizards can get away with flaunting a little magic in the open, and after what had been a rough year, Nita, Dairine and her Dad decide to have a proper Halloween celebration. It's fallen to Nita to carve the pumpkin...a rather misshapen specimen her father brought home. She ends up having a philosophical discussion with the pumpkin about its opinion on the matter, and then in a bout of odd sentimentality, decides to bring it with her trick-or-treating. Joined by Kit and Ronan, they hit the streets and visit Tom and Carl's neighborhood haunted house. All and all, a great evening, until the pumpkin starts feeling something very wrong happening in its home patch... How Lovely Are Thy Branches: A Young Wizards Christmas - Thanks to a record-breaking blizzard, a two-day party (including epic sleepover) takes place at the Rodriguez house, during which Carmela finally manages to grant a long-held wish of her best wizardly friend, the tree-shaped Filif, by getting him fully decked out in Christmas decorations. Lifeboats - Kit, Nita, Dairine and Rolan (among others) are called upon for an emergency evacuation of an entire alien race to new planets, because their moon is about to break up and the pieces will crash into the planet, in full-blown Armageddon style. Problem is, millions of the aliens almost inexplicably don't want to leave even in the face of unavoidable death and no one truly understands why. Kit, meanwhile, is fretting about Valentine's Day and even a race to save a world isn't enough to get it off his mind.A second novella collection, Interim Errantry 2: On Ordeal, released in 2017. Each story in the collection focuses on a different wizard and their first trial against the Lone Power.Miscellaneous short stories set in the universe include: Uptown Local (1986) - Set shortly after So You Want To Be A Wizard. Kit and Nita are bored and pester Tom for entertainment: he sends them off to go ride the New York subway. Actually, several New York's subways. Theobroma (2007) - A side story involving none of the usual characters; instead, we're introduced to Ken, an adult, work-a-day wizard who does "agency work", consulting on problems both magical and mundane. Today's assignment: help a woman fill the sudden vacancy in her gourmet chocolate shop. Turns out her chocolate-making partner isn't the only thing that left... Owl Be Home For Christmas (2020) - The true story of the saw-whet owl that was found in the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in 2020 and how it rescued its tree.There's also a sister series, Feline Wizards, which takes place in the same universe, but concerns a team of cat wizards who maintain the worldgate wizardry for New York City.

And only a few months pass between books seven, eight, and nine. As of 2011, the older books are being edited to have a coherent timeline in the modern day; first the ebooks, and eventually the print copies will be changed.

Just because you're fighting Satan doesn't mean you have to be rude about it, and because no wizard in the universe expects the Lone Power's eventual permanent defeat to be brought about by killing it — largely because that's impossible. What they do expect is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the Lone Power will finally surrender and redeem. And that's going to take long enough on its own, so no need to make the wait even longer by pissing it off with adding insult to injury. Even if/when does redeem, as an Eternal Power outside of time, he's not as bound by chronological causality as mortals are. His evil self is/was/will be messing with Wizards in the future simultaneously.

The Lone Power invented entropy and while everyone acknowledges it will be the death of the universe, they also know that the point of wizards is to slow down entropy as much as possible. Exists on both sides of the wizards vs Lone Power battles. The Lone Power, who exists outside of time, has already been redeemed, but its shadows still crop up. The wizards know that beating him in linear time won't make a knowable difference while the Lone Power knows it will ultimately lose and be redeemed. However, every small victory is still a victory.

Young Wizards / int_27a58d30	comment	Carnivore Confusion: Wizards can talk to any animal and even vegetables and the Wizard's Oath is about preserving life, yet wizards still need to eat to survive and cats aren't about to give up the pleasure of hunting mice and rats. Most of the time it's better not to think of this but there are in-universe justifications: So You Want To Be A Wizard addresses this when Nita talks with Liused, the backyard rowan tree, about the war the trees fought (and won) against the Lone Power to make the world ready for humans, fully knowing that humans would not always be so nice in return. Kit's TV gets alien cable he advises his parents to stay away from the cooking shows: Nita acknowledges at one point that vegetables (on Earth at least) are less upset about being eaten than they are about being wasted. Waste contributes to entropy which is what the wizards work to counter. By that token, sport hunting is also discouraged (in A Wizard Abroad, Nita warns a fox who's been pestering nearby farmers to make himself scarce before the locals' planned foxhunt). When Filif (a sentient tree-alien who's also a wizard) comes to visit. Dairine suggests "something vegetarian" for dinner, and then has to explain to Filif why they're not really murderous maniacs. Later, she decides to keep Filif (in a human disguise) away from the salad bar in the food court, because he'll think it's a massacre.

The side story 'Lifeboats' was, according to its Afterword, written as a deliberate subversion of this trope; the main characters are part of a planetary evacuation effort with thousands of other wizards involved, and they all have more or less the same crucial but menial job of keeping their assigned evacuation portals working correctly.

Young Wizards / int_a939d96a	comment	Adults Are Useless: Mostly averted; senior wizards are very necessary, and even non-magical adults are often helpful (even Nita's mom making her go to Ireland because she thinks Nita needs space from Kit is actually helpful in the end). The younger the wizard, the stronger their magic, to make up for the lack of experience, but the advice of older wizards is always important. In one of the books, someone muses that young wizards are better able to sacrifice themselves. However, in Wizards at War, the older wizards lose their powers and forget about magic, which makes an already-bad situation worse, because although the younger wizards temporarily inherit their offices, they don't have the maturity and experience.

While running through different worlds, Ponch brings them through a lava field. While only there for less than a second, the bottom of Nita's shoes were affected. While nothing specifically is stated of the other people wearing shoes, apparently, Ponch (a dog), Sker'ret (a large centipede-like alien) and Filif (a tree) are apparently unaffected. The reverse (cold temperatures) is in effect a number of times. While averted in the second books while their force field leaked in cold from the moon, on many planets and moons, they are shown to be able to pick up objects that should be freezing on such planets. Case in point was in book 8 when Dairine and Roshaun were lying on the silicon ground of a planet that is far from its sun. She also picks up the Mobiles (artificial life forms made of metal) when they should be extremely cold.

Young Wizards / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Sprinkled liberally throughout the series: There is a guest appearance by the Peter Davison Doctor in the third book as a good Samaritan who helps Dairine in a moment of need. The fifth book has a shout out to the fifth (and unreleased in English) season of Sailor Moon, in the form of a Fan Sub being watched by Kit's big sister. (This was confirmed by Word of God.) A Wizard of Mars hangs many lampshades on classic science fiction involving the planet, including Edgar Rice Burroughs' works and The War of the Worlds. Nita even encounters Marvin the Martian. Also in A Wizard of Mars, Ronan mentions hiding behind the couch at the scary parts of the science fiction show he watched as a child. In A Wizard of Mars, Darryl mentions that he's eating Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, Calvin's favorite breakfast cereal (and the only one he'll eat). Conversely, the series gets a shout-out in one of the author's Star Trek novels, where a cetacean scientist mentions the Song of the Twelve. The end of A Wizard Abroad, with Tualha becoming Queen of the Cats and vanishing up the chimney, is a shout out to the old fairy tale King o' the Cats. Star Wars is given a shout out in High Wizardry, although slightly incorrect as the author described it as from the future. That series was also given a small Shout-Out in Deep Wizardry as well with Dairine wearing Yoda pajamas and to Nita, punnily fulfilling a prediction of Peach's. a blink-and-you'll-miss-it one in Wizard of Mars - Nita refers to a famous hydromage called Angelina Pellegrino.

And not only does the Lone One not do anything about this, she's bound herself into the world and can't leave... so they end up building her a place to stay, as a reminder of what to avoid, which mostly gets used as a tourist attraction.

Young Wizards / int_eff83d77	comment	Mundane Utility: Casual wizardries are used for everything from relocating crabgrass to raiding a friend's fridge from three blocks away. There are occasional side effects, such as Kit's home theater getting interplanetary cable.

Young Wizards / int_f1d3f0c9	comment	Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: The wizard's manual describes plain old things like teleportation in insanely impossible-to-understand words. Justified in that magic is based on telling the universe what you want it to do in a very specific manner. You NEED to be able to split hairs and use precise diction. Especially when you want to do things like bring air with you on your jaunt to the moon. If you miswrite a name, the reality changes to fit.

Young Wizards / int_f217cdab	type	Great Big Book of Everything
Young Wizards / int_f217cdab	comment	Great Big Book of Everything: The Wizard's Manual. The ultimate example. You discover that a dragon is trying to eat Manhattan? Open your manual; the first page you turn to will be "Dragons: how to stop from eating large cities". The fact that they even custom-tailor themselves to the wizard who bears them is pointed out when Kit tries to list a page number for Nita, who finds something completely different in her book than Kit's on that same page. There's the Book of Night With Moon, as it's known on Earth. Essentially, it's a magical catalogue listing and describing every object on reality. Occasionally, someone has to pull it out and perform what's called an 'affirmation-by-reading;' basically, reminding everything what it's supposed to be when something is trying to subvert reality. It's also treated as sort of fine-tuning the universe like an engine.

Young Wizards / int_fbb54ba6	comment	Forever War: In the eighth book, the Yaldiv have been at war with each other for millions of years. They do all have an avatar of the devil within their souls, so that explains both why they want to wage war and why the war has never ended. In the ninth book, the first war between Shemask and Eilith lasted for over 10,000 years. Not even sudden and extreme climate change or the destruction of their planet could stop the wars, though.

Young Wizards / int_ff074ad4	type	Cast from Lifespan
Young Wizards / int_ff074ad4	comment	Cast from Lifespan: An (unfortunately) somewhat common tactic. Often, the more impressive spells will require more energy than the wizard currently has to cast, so they have to find an alternate way. in the first book, Kit and Nina sacrifice a span of their life to place a dragon in a time loop and there is much angst over how they'll never truly know how long they would have lived, and therefore where their life will be snipped short. The description of the phenomena makes it sound more like fate arranging for an earlier death than some sort of physical degeneration. In the second book It turns out that the amount of lifespan they gave up was basically "all of it". Thankfully, Ed the shark steps in and offers his lifespan in their stead. When Nita goes up against the Lone Power in High Wizardry, she uses a shield to block his attacks. Since said Lone Power is so powerful, the cost of a successful block is a year of her life for each attack made against her.
