The Marla Mason series is a series of seven books and several short stories written by American author Tim Pratt under the pseudonym of T.A. Pratt. The books are told through the third person perspective of Marla Mason, the head sorceress of the fictional United States East Coast city of Felport. Pratt describes the character as "an ass-kicking sorcerer who doesn’t wear a leather catsuit, doesn’t suffer from low self-esteem, doesn’t wallow in angst, and is almost always absolutely certain she’s right... even when she’s dead wrong."[1]

The first four books in the series were published by Bantam Books imprint Bantam Spectra, but after the publisher dropped the series Pratt continued publishing the remainder of the series through several successful Kickstarter campaigns.[2]
