Very much so. Clear simple prose, with a nice touch of humour. There are a lot of very useful constructions using the subjunctive, of the kind
I would not have done that if I had known.. and a vast amount of basic useful vocabulary. The 'specialist' magic vocabulary is fairly small and easy to grasp. I would recommend it for the learner in Spanish, starting with the first book.
