The first book in the bestselling and beloved fantasy series, the Magicians trilogy.

Quentin Coldwater is brilliant but miserable. Obsessed with the fantasy novels he read as a child, he finds the real world just doesn't compare.

Then one day it happens- he stumbles unexpectedly into a hidden world and is invited to join a very exclusive college, where he will learn the secrets of magic.

But something is still missing.

And now Quentin will do anything to find what he's always been looking for.

Reviews for The Magicians: (Book 1)

The best fantasy trilogy of the decade. -- Charles Stross Stirring, complex, adventurous . . . Grossman delivers superb coming of age fantasy. A darkly cunning story about the power of imagination itself. * The New Yorker * Dark and dangerous and full of twists. Hogwart's was never like this. The Magicians ought to be required reading... a terrific, at times almost painfully perceptive novel of the fantastic.
