Sabrina the Teenage Witch: The Official Episode Guide

by Paul Ruditis

The first ever Sabrina episode guide, covering all five seasons. Sabrina is everybody's favourite teenage pretty but accessible and smart. Due to start its fifth season in the UK in November, Sabrina the Teenage Witch pulls in 2m viewers in its ITV afternoon slot. Sexy, but not too sexy, Sabrina is the ideal role model for female teens and preteens and also appeals to the mums (and dads!) for whom it is a Bewitched nostalgia trip. Series five sees Sabrina go to college and move in with three wacky chums, whilst still staying in constant contact with her two aunts. Salem, the wise-talking Warlock-turned-cat, shares his time between the two households whilst serving out his 100-year penance. This official book will be an illustrated guide covering the first five series, going behind the scenes, interviewing the stars and with a resume of every episode. It will even have a DIY spell section for budding young witches, so that they can turn their brothers into toads!

About the author

Paul Ruditis also writes under the name P.J. Ruditis.

I was born and raised in Philadelphia where I lived a typical childhood with a far more interesting fantasy life. I mean, how many other eight year olds were sticking their Star Wars action figures in Ziploc bags filled with water and putting them in the freezer to recreate the ice planet of Hoth? (Really? That many? Never mind.)

After college, I moved to Los Angeles and was very lucky to get a job as a page at Paramount Pictures only months after I got into town. I worked as a tour guide and usher, and I performed temp office work around the lot.
Eventually, I took a position working in the studio's licensing department where I quickly worked my way up to middle management.

After a while, one of my friends in the publishing industry offered me the opportunity to write a Buffy, The Vampire Slayer short story for a collection she was editing. Well, when I heard how little money I could make as a writer, I immediately quit my job to try it full time. (Stupid, I know, but it kind of worked for me.)

I started out by writing books based on such wonderful TV shows as Star Trek, Roswell, and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch. I have since written over 30 books based some of the best shows on TV, adding The West Wing, Alias, and Prison Break to that ever growing list.

While I continue to work on these media tie-ins, I have also been focused more on my own original fiction, including my teen series DRAMA! and the Simon Pulse Romantic Comedy Love, Hollywood Style.
