The Magician’s Land is the third and final book in Lev Grossman’s Magicians trilogy. For those who haven’t heard of the series, it’s basically a dark take on the Chronicles of Narnia (with some Harry Potter-ish elements) featuring disaffected college students rather than kids.
I found this one to be a quite satisfying conclusion. Where the second book felt like less than the sum of its parts to me, this one was very tight. If you found the first book too negative, this one is a lot more optimistic in the end (though not surprisingly there’s still plenty of darkness along the way).
