Lev Grossman is the author of the No. 1 bestselling Magicians trilogy, which has been published in thirty countries and adapted as a TV show that ran for five seasons. He is also a screenwriter and the author of two children’s books, The Golden Swift and The Silver Arrow, and his journalism has appeared in Time, Vanity Fair, the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, among many other places. He lives with his wife and children in New York City.

"This is a sophisticated, subtle novel that is also magical fun. I can't imagine any lover of well-written classic fantasy ... who won't adore it" The Times "Stirring, complex, adventurous ... From the life of Quentin, his slacker Park Slope Harry Potter, Grossman delivers superb coming of age fantasy" -- Junot Diaz, author of Drown and The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Wao "This gripping novel draws on the conventions of contemporary and classic fantasy novels (most obviously, those of J. K. Rowling and C. S. Lewis) in order to upend them, and tell a darkly cunning story about the power of imagination itself" The New Yorker "The novel's climax includes some spectacular magical battles to complement the complex emotional entanglements Grossman has deftly sketched in earlier chapters. Very dark and very scary, with no simple answers provided - fantasy for grown-ups, in other words, and very satisfying indeed" Kirkus "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, author of The Ruins

   Detta är recension av formatet, inte av boken. Trots att det står i bokus Q&A att det ska gå bra att lägga in på en läsplatta och detta är EPUB så är det här inte en kryptering som stöds av vanliga eläsare så om du vill läsa boken så måste du göra det online i deras egna app. Något jag absolut inte vill göra, men ingen ångerrätt trots denna brist på korrekt information och med kundservice hänvisning till att jag har laddat ner boken. Ja, hur skulle jag annars märka att det inte gick att flytta boken till eläsare? (testat med två olika sorter av de mest populära). Tog 2 personer typ 10 timmar att till slut lyckas konvertera från detta oläsliga format. Köp någon annanstans om du inte vill läsa i bokus app!
