Welcome to J.W. Wells & Co, where magic is a perfectly respectable business, provided you don’t look too closely at the accounts. Tom Holt’s gloriously bonkers series follows hapless employees as they navigate enchanted offices, impossible contracts, ancient powers and bosses who make corporate management look positively sensible. There are goblins, gods, bureaucracy, existential crises and enough magical paperwork to make anyone yearn for a quiet desk job. Beneath all the absurdity are surprisingly sharp observations about work, capitalism, destiny and the strange things people do to get through Monday morning. Basically, fantasy with a company handbook.
