6/23/2023 0 Comments The magicians novel![]() ![]() ![]() Whether it’s through a biting remark from Margo, or a sarcastic quip from Alice, The Magicians shows that it knows exactly what it’s about. ![]() One of my favorite aspects of the show is just how wild and outlandish much of the plot is. From Season 1 through the now-airing Season 4, The Magicians has crafted a world and characters that are (mostly) easy to fall in love with. As you may recall from my review of Angelology, one of my pet peeves is literary authors who tackle genre fiction as if theyre slumming. The show has garnered obvious comparisons to Harry Potter (I mean, I just made one myself) and even large-scale fantasy shows like Game of Thrones. Quentin and crew find their way to Fillory-what they thought to be a fictional land existing only in their childhood stories. The main character, Quentin Coldwater, gets accepted into Brakebills where he and his friends learn to cast spells and eventually fight the Big Bad known as The Beast. A PG-13-rated (and frankly, sometimes R) version of Hogwarts, if you will. The entire 1 New York Times bestselling Magicians trilogy, including The Magicians, The Magician King, and The Magicians Land, now available in one ebook. Based on Lev Grossman’s book of the same name, SYFY’s The Magicians centers around a group of students at Brakebills University, a school for magic. ![]()
