13. The Magician King

By Lev Grossman (362 pp ebook)

This is the sequel to The Magicians and I had almost the identical experience. I really enjoyed the book but I kept waiting to fall madly in love and came up a bit short. Again, this isn't intended to be an iffy recommendation. I'm a solid recommend. This one is the further adventures of Quentin and it also fills in the story of Julia who disappears for a big chunk of the first book. To be honest, I got a little bored with Julia's story and was happy when it went back to Quentin. I can't say much more without spoilers.
