The Magicians is EXTREMELY *un* magical...

The Magicians (The Magicians, #1)
by Lev Grossman


Oh. My. Goodness.

On someone else's recommendation, I have wasted HOURS of my life listening to some rich privileged kid whine and wallow in ennui... Ugh... Don't waste your time...

It is talked about as if it is "Harry Potter for grown ups" but it isn't. At least, not any group of grown ups I want any part of.

There is now a show based on these books on SyFy channel. If you see those previews, where there are a bunch of late teens doing magic to get high and throw people across a room and graffiti a wall... yeah. I prefer not to.

I did read the whole thing. And I wish I hadn't. Gouging my eyes out with a meat cleaver would be less painful.
