| Creatures: |
 Melinda
Warren left England and arrived in America in 1654 with her two years old
daughter Cassandra. Her descendants include branches of the Grants, the Morgans, and the Marstons. Never forgetting her knowledge of witchcraft, Melinda Warren possessed three special powers. The first, telekinesis, or moving objects using only the power of her mind. The second,clairvoyance, or the ability to see the future. Her third power: to stop time. Melinda Warren's powers were discovered when her lover, Hugh Montgomery, betrayed her to the townspeople. She was tried for witchcraft, found guilty and sentenced to be burned at the stake - a sentence that was never given before. The townspeople tied her to a stake in the center of the village. Her last words were "You may kill me but you can not kill my kind. With each generation, the Warren witches will grow stronger and stronger until - at last - three sisters will arrive. Together these three witches will be the most powerful witches the world has ever known. They will be known as the Charmed Ones. Witches and warlocks The conflicts between the sects originated at the dawn of time and is bound by the inherent differences between witches and warlocks. Originally warlocks were witches. As "witches gone bad" warlocks are determined to make their mark by torturing innocents. Another quest is to kill witches and steal their powers. Warlocks have also been known to form agreements with demons to further their goals. All of this is done in an effort to strengthen their own power to perform evil deeds. Warlocks have been growing stronger and stronger with each generation. They usually appear in human form. However, they can easily take on a monstrousd demeanour. It is difficult to recognise warlocks until they have revealed their evil powers. from "Witches and warlocks - the eternal battle" |

| Trivia: |
Phoebe went to NY to look for the
their father but the real reason was that Prue blamed her for stealing
her fiance, Roger. In reality however it was Roger who tried to seduce
Phoebe. Patty's maiden name was Marston Although the books re-tells the first episode 1x01 Something wicca this way comes it differs in some parts - e.g. Prue meets Andy for the first time in a cafe, Darryl is not present, Phoebe has an encounter with the "ghost" of Melinda Warren etc.). |

| Bloopers: |
In 1x09 The witch is
back the lover who betrayed Melinda is Matthew Tate, in teh book
however it is said that his name was Montgomery (he obviously was not a
warlock either). The book does not mention Kit coming to the girls.
The spells are slightly different from
those in 1x01 Something wicca this way comes |

| Summary: | 9 out of 12 | |||
| If you have seen the first episode of Charmed you will find the book a bit disappointing due to the mistakes (see bloopers). Apart from that it's pleasantn to read. | ||||
