Fans of Howl's Moving Castle who want to explore more of Diana Wynne Jones's original works will be pleased to learn that The Folio Society will be publishing more of the author's books.
The Chrestomanci series will be released between 2024 and 2027. With Charmed Life, The Magicians of Caprona and Witches Week available now. The Life of Christopher Chant will be out in 2025, while Conrad's Fate will be out in 2026 and Pinhoe Egg in 2027. All books include Endpapers and the case is printed with silver ink once again making adds a sense of luxury. The book is accompanied by illustrations by Alison Bryant.
The books can be read in any order as each book is fully explained, but there are benefits to reading them in order, or at least reading Charmed Life first. They don't have Howl, but because they're written by the same author, they have the same magical elements along with characters that feel familiar.
What sets The Folio Society's publications apart is that they are luxury books. The print quality, paper, luminosity and illustrations are often exceptional. Each book will retail directly from The Folio Society for £49.95 (GBP) if ordered in the UK or $70 (USD) if ordered from their US website. These books are expensive, but own some of their books and check out the other books they've published and you'll get your money's worth. They are something you would receive as a special gift for someone or indeed as a great gift for yourself.
They also have Howl's Moving Castle again for £49.95 (GBP) or $70 (USD)
