- Three books, one per witch, and they were written to be read in order: each is a complete romance, but the curse the three of them are lifting runs across all three and only ends in Face the Fire.
- Dance Upon the Air is the first.
- Roberts wrote a great many trilogies on this pattern — three women, one small town, one thread that closes at the end — and this is one of the better ones, which is why it is still the one people ask about twenty years on.

How this plan is calculated
The plan comes from the pages and ratings of each volume: we split the series into stages of about three weeks’ reading, size each break to the stage before it, and read the chance of finishing from how many readers rate the last volume compared with the first. How we work out the plan →
Every volume in order
No volume in this series has enough ratings to enter a ranking yet, so the list carries no scores — the order and the volumes are still complete.
