Review: Good ending for the trilogy, yet open-ended enough to account for potential future stories - I have really liked the Magicians trilogy. There was a lot of interesting and unique interpretations about how magic is created, utilized and manipulated. I have just recently started watching the Netflix series and find it quite enjoyable as well. The two don’t overlap much except with some of the very basic concepts. Even the characters seem different to each other. There are some basic traits that each have, but the character development have turned them into very different versions, just as the plots are handled in each have more differences then similarities. I was glad to see this difference, as it allowed both to stand on their own and be enjoyed for what they are unto themselves. In this book, I liked how that flashbacks and memories were used to explain what had happened to Quentin, such as turning thief, and his other adventures after returning. It was great to see him teach a new group of students at Brakebills. Though not so surprising that he would mess it up. This return allowed the author a good way to introduce the Plum character and truly bring Fillory, the Chatwins, Earth and Quentin, full circle. I was surprised though, as he left Fillory, Josh said to take the townhome in Venice and Quentin could have easily set himself up in that role. In many ways, obeing this fixer-type character to both sides, would have allowed Quentin access to more knowledge and magics, not to mention funding for his future. It seemed odd to not have Quentin even consider taking over the townhome, if nothing else. Of course using Brakebills, it was probably easier to introduce Plum, and the return of niffin Alice. The big theft from The Couple was well handled. All the intrigue and sophistry of this portion of the novel was incredibly thought out. It reminded me of stories that immortalized other great thefts, such as Ocean 11, The Sting, and A Fish Called Wanda, but adding in a fun Magician’s twist. Each thief was unique and had a good amount of backstory and character development. Yet, keeping their air of mystery for some characters added to the intrigue and story. I wish more was known about The Couple and their motivations. Including the probability magic wielding golem truly makes this Magician’s Land very different from other magical universes in stories. It was amazing the stories from all the various characters from differing points in their histories, yet each interacted and moved towards the finalization of the trilogy. I realize all good stories do this, but this story had so many moving parts and spinning plates, it was impressive the author was able to incorporate everything as well as he did. There is plenty of history and rich diversity leftover, that the author could continue writing more stories within this world, if you ever wished to do so. Yet you aren’t disappointed either if this is the end for this set of books. The moral that one Magician with the discipline of Mending, the repair of small objects, could save a world or two with such power, It’s all in the application and motivation. I liked the ending and the rebirth of Fillory using the deaths of the gods, Ember and Umber. This gave the story a sense of an old fable being related. That the story continues after this big climax, was wonderful. The author even gives us possibilities for many characters future stories to be told.
Review: 3rd verse same as the 1st...and uh...the 2nd - SHORT SUMMARY: If you liked the first 2 books, then you will like this book. It's right in line with what came before. It's a funny thing, this book. Normally, when you read a trilogy, you're really anticipating that final book. The 2nd book usually sets up all kind of plot threads and leaves you hanging. But not Lev Grossman's The Magician's trilogy. Each book has been pretty much self-contained. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. Good, because you're not left hanging after the book, waiting desperately for 2-3 years for the next one. Bad, because you really can't get worked up about reading it. While reading, I was struck by the thought that this book wasn't really necessary. If Grossman had stopped writing after the first or second book, you wouldn't be disappointed. Each book has it's own ending. This, really, is just the continuing adventures of Quentin Coldwater and Co. The book picks up about 6 months after the ending of the 2nd book. Quentin attends a shady meeting with other fringe-magicians about a possible heist. Quentin needs the $2 million payday promised for the job because he has things he needs to do. We are then, over the next few chapters, filled in with the details about why Quentin was at the meeting and what happened in the 6 months between the end of the 2nd book and that meeting. Turns out Quentin was kind of lost after getting kicked out of Fillory for good, so he finds himself back at Brakebills, where's he's offered an adjunct professor position. That doesn't last long, of course. But Quentin has bigger things on his mind to care too much about getting kicked out. Because he discovered Brakebills was haunted. Not by a ghost...but by a niffin, a being of pure magical energy. Now, he has to find a way to bring his beloved Alice back to life. Meanwhile, in Fillory, High King Elliot finds himself dealing with a pesky invasion from a neighboring country. The situation is humorously dealt with (with some neat big of magic) but he soon finds he has bigger fish to fry. Ember, the god of Fillory, coolly informs Elliot and Queen Janet that Fillory is dying and doesn't have much time left. We learn more about Elliot, and especially Janet, and what makes them tick. They both have come to greatly love Fillory and they set out on the most epic of quests to save it. The Magician's Land quickly sets up and goes about tying up various threads. As stated before, this really is a self-contained novel, but that doesn't mean it doesn't tie into the first 2 books. In fact, we see a whole host of familiar characters and places. One notable new addition was a character by the name of Plum, a 5th year student at Brakebills that gets involved with Quentin's quest. She has some moments to shine, but sadly doesn't add a whole lot to the overall story. This book also contains far more POVs than the first two novels. In the first book, we are in Quentin's head the entire time. The 2nd book was split between Quentin and Julia. In this final volume, we get into the heads of far more characters, which may be a good thing for readers who got tired of Quentin and his depressing narrative. But Quentin really matures and shines in this final volume. It's a pleasure to see how far he has come from the first book. A fair warning to those who enjoyed the "grittiness" of this trilogy. Things get a lot more fantastical in this final volume. It's hard not to, when you have gods, demigods, and 3/4 gods walking around and playing with the powers of creation like it was nothing. To be honest, I thought it got kind of ridiculous in the end. I felt it lost it's emotional connection as vast powers started getting thrown around. It almost devalues everything the characters have struggled to achieve to this point. Magic was a grind and had to be earned. I like that. There's still some of that in this novel, but things sort of get out of hand. In conclusion, this is a worthy ending to a interesting trilogy. The ending kind of meanders and sort of ends abruptly, but most threads are neatly tied up by that point and there is nothing that leaves you hanging. I felt satisfied as I closed the cover. What more needs to be said?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic, surprisingly beautiful climax to a wonderful series
*by J***E on August 10, 2014*

Lev Grossman's Magicians trilogy is a fascinating fantasy series, in some ways, for all the things it doesn't do. It doesn't follow the usual Joseph Campbell-inspired hero's journey, for one thing; indeed, much of the book's power comes from Quentin's being forced to realize that he's not anyone special - that just because he can do magic, he's still himself, and that won't change. Moreover, it's a fantasy series that's not explicitly plot-driven in the way so many fantasy series are. Each book has been its own independent tale, and while elements - mainly the characters, but some details - overlap from book to book, it's always been a series more driven by its characters and their pain than by any story or mythology. And The Magician's Land follows through on that perfectly, ending the trilogy in a way that may not satisfy those who want more details as to the lives of the gods or the truth about magic, but will satisfy those who are invested in the growth of Quentin and his friends. If The Magicians was about the way our dreams fade in the harsh light of reality, and The Magician King was about what we're willing to pay to make our dreams come true, The Magician's Land is about learning to grow up once we realize that our dreams may not happen. That sounds harsh, and Grossman's series has always had an undercurrent of melancholy and depression underlying its fantasy elements. But in many ways, The Magician's Land is the most optimistic book of the series, finding a way to rebuild and grow, to say nothing of finding meaning in our lives beyond selfish wish-fulfillment. In some ways, it's the logical culmination of Quentin's arrested adolescence that filled the first book; The Magician's Land finally finds Quentin at a sort of peace, figuring out who he really is and trying to atone for his past sins. Of course, this being Grossman, all of this is wrapped in an exciting, involving adventure that finds Fillory in danger, Quentin involved in a magical heist, and some old characters coming back into play. It's fun, wonderful stuff, and Grossman continues his knack for making magic truly wondrous in the truest sense of the word, as though we're seeing things we may never understand, but that inspire awe and wonder from us. And it all culminates in some final chapters that are absolutely perfect, ending the series in a moment of transcendent beauty that I never quite expected. The Magician's Land brings the series together wonderfully, ending Quentin's story in a rich, satisfying way that makes the series into something that's equal parts post-modern meditation on Harry Potter, coming of age story, and literary portrait of our modern age and the post-school life many of us face. It's absolutely wonderful, and it's saying something that it just might be my favorite book of the series - no small praise at all, considering how great the first two are.
