Waiting on Wednesday is an event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, where I highlight an upcoming release I'm excited about.
This week I'm waiting on..
by Lev Grossman
Published by Viking
Release date: August 5, 2014
In The Magician’s Land, the
stunning conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Magicians trilogy—on-sale
from Viking on August 5—Quentin Coldwater has been cast out of Fillory, the
secret magical land of his childhood dreams. With nothing left to lose he
returns to where his story began, the Brakebills Preparatory College of Magic.
But he can’t hide from his past, and it’s not long before it comes looking for
him.
Along with Plum, a brilliant young
undergraduate with a dark secret of her own, Quentin sets out on a crooked
path through a magical demimonde of gray magic and desperate characters. But
all roads lead back to Fillory, and his new life takes him to old haunts, like
Antarctica, and to buried secrets and old friends he thought were lost
forever. He uncovers the key to a sorcery masterwork, a spell that could
create magical utopia, a new Fillory—but casting it will set in motion a chain
of events that will bring Earth and Fillory crashing together. To save them he
will have to risk sacrificing everything.
The Magician’s Land is an intricate
thriller, a fantastical epic, and an epic of love and redemption that brings
the Magicians trilogy to a magnificent conclusion, confirming it as one of the
great achievements in modern fantasy. It’s the story of a boy becoming a man,
an apprentice becoming a master, and a broken land finally becoming whole.
I need to tear through the second book before this, but I'm excited for the conclusion of Lev Grossman's fantasy deconstruction.
