Quentin has been cast out of Fillory. Alone and adrift, he returns to Brakebills, the school of magic where it all began. But he can't hide from his past.
His new path will take him through a world of grey and uncertain magic, from Antarctica to the
enchanted Neitherlands.
But all roads lead back to Fillory. The magical barriers are failing and the realm faces destruction. To save them, Quentin must unlock the secrets of magic and risk sacrificing everything.

'The best fantasy trilogy of the decade.' Charles Stross
'The most entertaining and compelling fantasy I've read in a long time.' The Times
'Lev Grossman has conjured a rare creature: a trilogy that simply gets better and better as it goes along... Literary perfection.' Erin Morgenstern
'May just be the most subversive, gripping, and enchanting fantasy novel I've read this century.' Cory Doctorow
'Dark and dangerous and full of twists. Hogwarts was never like this.' George R. R. Martin
'Sad, hilarious, beautiful, and essential to anyone who cares about modern fantasy.' Joe Hill
'A darkly cunning story about the power of imagination itself.' The New Yorker
'The Magicians ought to be required reading... a terrific, at times almost painfully perceptive novel of the fantastic.' Kelly Link

Rezensionen / Stimmen
The final part of the outstanding Magicians trilogy ... Lev Grossman manipulates fantasy genres with skill ... The Magician's Land glitters with wit. * Daily Mail * Richly imagined and continually surprising ... The strongest book in Grossman's series. * New York Times Book Review * [A] wonderful trilogy ... If the Narnia books were like catnip for a certain kind of kid, these books are like crack for a certain kind of adult. * New York Times * A wholly satisfying and stirring conclusion to this weird and wonderful tale ... Relentlessly subversive and inventive. * Washington Post * The Magician's Land triumphantly answers the essential questions at the heart of the series. * Los Angeles Times * The strength of the trilogy lies ... in the characters, whose inner lives and frailties Grossman renders with care and empathy ... Quentin['s] ... magical journey is deeply human. * New Yorker * The world of Grossman's 'Magicians' series is arrestingly original, joyful and messy. It's so vividly rendered that it's almost disappointing to remember that it doesn't, after all, exist. * Chicago Tribune * The last (and IOHO, best) book in the hit Magicians trilogy. Savor every word. * Cosmopolitan * A perfect ending ... If you have read the first two installments, believe me, you don't want to miss this one * Sense of Wonder * The Magician's Land is a wonderful wrap up of the Magicians trilogy. Lev Grossman is sympathetic to his characters and to his readers by giving them both one last, yet satisfying adventure * The Book Palace *
