Reviews
"Fantasy fans can't afford to miss the darkly comic and unforgettably queasy experience of reading this book-and be glad for reality." -Booklist(Starred Review) "This is a book for grown-up fans of children's fantasy and would appeal to those who loved Donna Tartt's The Secret History. Highly recommended." -Library Journal (Starred Review) "Very dark and very scary, with no simple answers provided-fantasy for grown- ups, in other words, and very satisfying indeed." -Kirkus Reviews "... provocative, unput-downable ... one of the best fantasies I've read in ages." -Fantasy & Science Fiction "The Magiciansis to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea." -George R.R. Martin, bestselling author of A Game of Thrones "Stirring, complex, adventurous ... from the life of Quentin Coldwater, his slacker Park Slope Harry Potter, Lev Grossman delivers superb coming of age fantasy." -Junot Diaz, Pulitzer-prize winning author of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao "The Magiciansought to be required reading for anyone who has ever fallen in love with a fantasy series, or wished they went to a school for wizards." -Kelly Link, author of Magic for Beginnersand Stranger Things Happen "The Magiciansis a spellbinding, fast-moving, dark fantasy book for grownups that feels like an instant classic." -Kate Christensen, PEN/Faulkner award winning author of The Great Manand The Epicure's Lament "The Magiciansis fantastic. It's strange, fanciful, extravagant, eccentric, and truly remarkable-a great story, masterfully told." -Scott Smith, bestselling author of The Ruinsand A Simple Plan "Remember the last time you ran home to finish a book? This is it, folks. The Magiciansis the most dazzling, erudite and thoughtful fantasy novel to date." -Gary Shteyngart, author of Absurdistanand The Russian Debutante's Handbook "The Magiciansbrilliantly explores the hidden underbelly of fantasy and easy magic ... It's like seeing the worlds of Narnia and Harry Potter through a 3-D magnifying glass." -Naomi Novik, author of His Majesty's Dragon "Grossman clearly has read his POtter and much more. While this story invariably echoes a whole body of romantic coming-of-age tales, Grossman's American variation is fresh and compelling. Like a jazz musician, he riffs on Potter and Narnia, but makes it his own." --Washington Post "Grossman skillfully moves us through four years of school and a postgraduate adventure, never letting the pace slacken...beguiling." --Seattle Times "An irresistible storytelling momentum makes The Magiciansa great summer book, both thoughtful and enchanting." --Salon "Sly and lyrical, [The Magicians] captures the magic of childhood and the sobering years beyond." --Entertainment Weekly "...no doubt that this book is inventive storytelling and Grossman is at the height of his powers." --Chicago Sun-Times "The Magiciansreimagines modern-day fantasy for grownups. [It] breathes life into a cast of characters you want to know...and does what [some] claim books never really manage to do: 'get you out, really out, of where you were and into somewhere better." --Louisville Courier-Journal, "Fantasy fans can't afford to miss the darkly comic and unforgettably queasy experience of reading this book-and be glad for reality." - Booklist (Starred Review) "This is a book for grown-up fans of children's fantasy and would appeal to those who loved Donna Tartt's The Secret History .
