List of Charmed books
The book cover of the companion novel "House of Shards". Featuring, from left: Holly Marie Combs as Piper, Alyssa Milano as Phoebe, and Rose McGowan as Paige; set in front of the Halliwell Manor.

This article is a list of books — novels and companions — based on the The WB Television Network drama series Charmed.

Contents

Canon

The novels follow no strict continuity with the series or each other, and are often considered to be non-canon. This is evident in the fact that there is a period of roughly a year between the original idea for a novel and the finalised product, causing problems for authors as they are unaware as to how the television series will develop and change during the writing process. Despite this, the editors of the novels function as the medium between the author and the production company, in the case of Charmed Constance M. Burge. Therefore, the television series producers have final approval of everything in the novels[1], which could indicate the literature fitting into the established canon of the series and the so-called "Charmed universe"[2].

To rescue the innocents, the Charmed Ones descend into Hades, fighting underworld perils and uncovering an unholy plot.
