THE MAGICIANS: ALICE’S STORY is an all new chapter set in the world of The Magicians trilogy of novels by New York Times bestselling author Lev Grossman that retells the events of the first novel through fan-favorite character Alice Quinn.

Alice Quinn is manifestly brilliant, and she’s always known that magic is real. During her years at Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, she rises to the top of her class, falls in love with Quentin Coldwater, and witnesses a horrifically magical creature invade their dimension.

It’s not soon after graduation when Alice, Quentin, and their friends set their sights on the idyllic setting of Fillory—a place thought to only live in the pages of their favorite children’s books—where magic flows like rivers . . . But in this magical realm nothing is what it seems and something darker lies behind the spellbinding facade. It is in the darkness where Alice will discover her true calling and her life, and those friends, forever changed.

Acclaimed novelist Lev Grossman joins New York Times bestselling writer Lilah Sturges (Jack of Fables), and breakout artist Pius Bak for a new chapter in the smash hit trilogy The Magicians.

Lev Grossman's new novel The Bright Sword is the story of a motley group of oddball knights—and one sorceress—who are trying to rebuild Camelot in the wake of King Arthur's death. Rebecca Yarros has called it "utterly enchanting," and George R.R. Martin says: "If you love King Arthur as much as I do, you’ll love Lev Grossman’s The Bright Sword."

Grossman is also the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Magicians trilogy—The Magicians, The Magician King, and The Magician’s Land—which was adapted as a TV show that ran for five seasons on Syfy. He has written two novels for children: The Silver Arrow, which was on the best-of-the-year lists of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, People, Apple and 鶹, and its sequel The Golden Swift. He wrote the screenplay for the movie The Map of Tiny Perfect Things, which was a finalist for the Critic’s Choice awards. He' also a journalist: from 2002 to 2016 he worked at Time magazine, where he wrote 20 cover stories, and he’s written essays and articles for, among others, Vanity Fair, the Believer, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times and Wired.

Lev grew up in Lexington, Massachusetts, the son of two English professors. His twin brother Austin is a writer and game designer, and his older sister Sheba is an artist. He lives in Brooklyn, New York but spends a lot of time in Sydney, Australia, too, where his wife is from. He has three children and a somehow steadily increasing number of cats.

    Alice Quinn was the brightest student of her class in Brakebills. For her, magic came intuitively and she ascends the ranks of magic quickly, hoping that her knowledge will help her find her missing brother. When Penny finds a button that will lead Alice and her fellow students to Fillory, a storybook realm of wonder, Alice learns that to survive in a world of magic a high price may need to be paid.

    Fantastic artwork helps us realise the amazing gifts each student has been given and the plot is interesting, reworking 'The Magicians' to be told through the eyes of its most tragic character.

    Grossman knocked it out of the park! Again!
    Good story, great character development especially given in the short space of an illustrated novel. Well drawn with a lot of well done subtleties like emotional expressions…

    3.0 out of 5 stars If you need an example of lazy writing - look no further.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2020

    I *loved* the original Magicians trilogy. This, on the other hand... is just plain lazy. The amount of "perspective" being added is effectively zero (no seriously, if you read the original, you basically get to see ONLY scenes where Alice was mentioned in the book (with few quite boring and insignificant additions) without any kind of self-reflection that was done so excellently in the original book.

    So to me, it ended up a regurgitated version of the original only without the beauty and the freshness of it (I *have* read the original book already, after all)
