The result was keep. There is consensus that this book series meets notability requirements due to the coverage it has received. I'll also move the article title since Magic Shop appears to be the official title. (non-admin closure) Spirit of Eagle (talk) 04:15, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not finding enough references to make me believe this is a notable series of books. Mikeblas (talk) 15:34, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Bruce Colville as although I haven't looked at this closely, this is usually the case when the books are not independently notable. SwisterTwister talk 07:08, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I think you mean Bruce Coville. -- Mikeblas (talk) 17:26, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I managed to find reviews for the books in several different places. It also looks like one of the books was influenced Paolini's Inheritance series. I'm not sure that the individual books warrant articles, but I think that as a series it would merit a keep. I would recommend moving this to Magic Shop (series) since the series's name is "Magic Shop" rather than "Magic Shop Books" from what I can see. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:16, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
