Young Wizards is a series of novels by Diane Duane. The Young Wizards series presently consists of ten books, focusing on the adventures of two young wizards named Nita and Kit. Each novel pits Nita and Kit against the "Lone Power", an entity ultimately bent on the destruction of the entire universe. The series began in 1983 with the book So You Want to Be a Wizard, which told the story of their first experiences with wizardry. In 1997, Duane began a spin-off, the series, that takes place in the same universe, but with different protagonists.
