Charles Hether-Gray

Charles Hether-Gray (1712–1799) was an author and a much-respected theoretical magician. His works include The Anatomy of a Minotaur.

Hether-Gray is considered an excellent author upon whose work one should build by Mr Segundus, but Mr Honeyfoot considers it "thick-headed nonsense" [23].

He was among those authors Jonathan Strange first studied when beginning his education in magic. Strange later reads Hether-Gray again in the company of Miss Greysteel, and is amused to discover how "simple" and "innocent" such literature seems to him after some eight years experience as a practical magician [54].

It was Hether-Gray who conclusively solved the Pevensey mystery [35].
