Ree Reyes Books in Order

The Ree Reyes books are urban fantasy for people who grew up loving stories and then wondered what would happen if fandom itself became a source of magic. Ree starts out as a barista, comic shop worker, and aspiring screenwriter, not a grand chosen one. Then she stumbles into the hidden supernatural side of her town and learns that pop culture obsession can be weaponized in very real ways.

In this world, Geekomancers channel power through beloved movies, comics, games, and other touchstones. A prop can become more than a prop. A favorite genre trope can turn into a tactic. Underwood has a lot of fun with the idea, but the joke never stays just a joke. The magic system gives the books their spark, and it also shapes who gets power, who abuses it, and who understands the rules.

Ree is the heart of the series. She is funny, stressed, capable, and often in over her head, which makes her a strong guide to a very strange world. Around her, the recurring cast helps build the series texture: Eastwood, her unreliable former mentor and fellow Geekomancer; Drake, the man-out-of-time adventurer; and Grognard, the bar owner and gaming-world fixture whose place often becomes a gathering point for magical trouble.

The first four stories form a clear opening arc. Geekomancy introduces Ree and the hidden magical flip-side of everyday life. Celebromancy pushes the series into show business, curses, and the warped power of fame. Attack the Geek works like a tight, chaotic side quest, trapping Ree and friends inside Grognard's while monsters close in. Hexomancy brings earlier conflicts back around and raises the cost for everyone in Ree's circle.

The tone stays lively, quick, and openly geeky, but the books are not only reference delivery systems. Ree is dealing with heartbreak, ambition, friendship, and the slow process of deciding what kind of hero she actually wants to be. That gives the jokes and action something solid to land on.

Order matters here.

The best experience is to read the four books in sequence, with Attack the Geek fitting between Celebromancy and Hexomancy. If you like urban fantasy that loves genre without talking down to it, this is probably Underwood's clearest entry point. It is playful, but it has real stakes.
