The Magicians by Lev GrossmanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars This is like Harry Potter for grownups.Its about an angst ridden teenage boy (Quentin Coldwater) from Brooklyn who goes to a school of magic to learn to be a magician. The book is filled with lots of eccentric and interesting characters. Magic is learnt by hard graft, its a struggle to get hand movements right to cast spells, none of this wishy washy wand waving!This is my kind of book, I just hope there's a follow up, the ending gave me the impression there might be.
