"Intriguing, coming-of-age fantasy" - Boston Globe (Pick of the Week) " The Magicians by Lev Grossman is a very entertaining book; one of those summer page-turners that you wish went on for another six volumes. Grossman takes a good number of the best childhood fantasy books from the last seventy-five years and distills their ability to fascinate into the fan-boy mind of his protagonist, Quentin Coldwater.… There is no doubt that this book is inventive storytelling and Grossman is at the height of his powers." - Chicago Sun-Times "Entertaining" - People "Lev Grossman's novel The Magicians may just be the most subversive, gripping, and enchanting fantasy novel I've read this century…. Grossman is a hell of a pacer, and the book rips along, whole seasons tossed out in a single sentence, all the boring mortar ground off the bricks, so that the book comes across as a sheer, seamless face that you can't stop yourself from tumbling down once you launch yourself off the first page. This isn't just an exercise in exploring what we love about fantasy and the lies we tell ourselves about it-it's a shit-kicking, gripping, tightly plotted novel that makes you want to take the afternoon off work to finish it." -Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing "An irresistible storytelling momentum makes The Magicians a great summer book, both thoughtful and enchanting." -Salon.com "Grossman skillfully moves us through four years of school and a postgraduate adventure, never letting the pace slacken…beguiling." - Seattle Times "Through sheer storytelling grace and imaginative power, Lev Grossman [creates] an adventure that's both enthralling and mature." - Details "Sly and lyrical, [ The Magicians ]captures the magic of childhood and the sobering years beyond." - Entertainment Weekly "Mixing the magic of the most beloved children''s fantasy classics (from Narnia and Oz to Harry Potter and Earthsea) with the sex, excess, angst, and anticlimax of life in college and beyond, Lev Grossman's The Magicians reimagines modern-day fantasy for grown-ups. [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.' Or if not better, at least a heck of a lot more interesting." - Louisville Courier-Journal "This gripping novel draws on the conventions of contemporary and classic fantasy novels in order to upend them, and tell a darkly cunning story about the power of imagination itself. [ The Magicians is] an unexpectedly moving coming-of-age story." - The New Yorker "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 "Stirring, complex, adventurous…from the life of Quentin Coldwater, his slacker Park Slope Harry Potter, Lev Grossman delivers superb coming of age fantasy." -Junot DÃaz, Pulitzer PrizeÂwinning author of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, "The Magicians is to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea. Solidly rooted in the traditions of both fantasy and mainstream literary fiction, the novel tips its hat to Oz and Narnia as well to Harry, but don't mistake this for a children''s book. Grossman's sensibilities are thoroughly adult, his narrative dark and dangerous and full of twists. Hogwart's was never like this." -George R. R. Martin, bestselling author of A Game of Thrones "The Magicians ought to be required reading for anyone who has ever fallen in love with a fantasy series, or wished that they went to a school for wizards. Lev Grossman has written a terrific, at times almost painfully perceptive novel of the fantastic that brings to mind both Jay McInerney and J. K. Rowling." -Kelly Link, author of Magic for Beginners and Stranger Things Happen "Anyone who grew up reading about magical wardrobes and unicorns and talking trees before graduating to Less Than Zero and The Secret History and Bright Lights, Big City will immediately feel right at home with this smart, beautifully written book by Lev Grossman. The Magicians is fantastic, in all senses of the word. It's strange, fanciful, extravagant, eccentric, and truly remarkable-a great story, masterfully told." -Scott Smith, bestselling author of The Ruins and A Simple Plan "The Magicians is a spellbinding, fast-moving, dark fantasy book for grownups that feels like an instant classic. I read it in a niffin-blue blaze of page turning, enthralled by Grossman's verbal and imaginative wizardry, his complex characters, and, most of all, his superb, brilliant inquiry into the wondrous, dangerous world of magic." -Kate Christensen, PEN/Faulkner award winning author of The Great Man and The Epicure''s Lament "Remember the last time you ran home to finish a book? This is it, folks. The Magicians is the most dazzling, erudite, and thoughtful fantasy novel to date. You'll be bedazzled by the magic but also brought short by what it has to sayabout the world we live in." -Gary Shteyngart, author of Absurdistan and The Russian Debutante's Handbook "The Magicians brilliantly explores the hidden underbelly of fantasy and easy magic, taking what's simple on the surface and turning it over to show us the complicated writhing mess beneath. 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 "Fresh and compelling…The Magicians is a great fairy tale, written for grown-ups but appealing to our most basic desires for stories to bring about some re-enchantment with the world, where monsters lurk but where a young man with a little magic may prevail." -Washington Post "The Magicians is original…slyly funny." -USA Today "Lev Grossman's playful fantasy novel The Magicians pays homage to a variety of sources…with such verve and ease that you quickly forget the references and lose yourself in the story." -O, The Oprah Magazine "I felt like I was poppin' peyote buttons with J. K. Rowling when I was reading Lev Grossman's new novel The Magicians.…I couldn't put it down." -Mickey Rapkin, GQ "The novel manages a literary magic trick: it's both an enchantingly written fantasy and a moving deconstruction of enchantingly realized fantasies." -Los Angeles Times, "Intriguing, coming-of-age fantasy" - Boston Globe (Pick of the Week) "The Magicians by Lev Grossman is a very entertaining book; one of those summer page-turners that you wish went on for another six volumes.
