Book Description
A run through a forest to get away from everything, a misstep into a ring of daisies, and a fall through an arched tree, and suddenly everything seems inconsequential when compared to a crown offered and a war for a throne. But what happens when you stumble back? What happens when the memories of barely two decades from before you found your family slam back into your mind, when your body honed from battle is reduced back to that of a child on the cusp of adulthood? And what happens when you feel like you cant adjust again?

In this pages you will meet a magician and its going to be confusing. The shapes of magic are countless. Knowing that, Ramiro doesn ́t try for a second to classify some of them, or even to give you a tool on how to recognize them. He is joyfully jumping into what he believes its worth living, "the feeling of magic". He is writing now in third person because it just felt like that right now. He is me, well... both of us. I ́m not trying to confuse you. That is only the way it comes out. I have a weird sense of freedom while writing here. Enjoy!

With nothing left to lose he returns to where his story began, the Brakebills Preparatory College of Magic. But he can’t hide from his past, and it’s not long before it comes looking for him. Along with Plum, a brilliant young undergraduate with a dark secret of her own, Quentin sets out on a crooked path through a magical demimonde of gray magic and desperate characters. But all roads lead back to Fillory, and his new life takes him to old haunts, like Antarctica, and to buried secrets and old friends he thought were lost forever. He uncovers the key to a sorcery masterwork, a spell that could create magical utopia, a new Fillory—but casting it will set in motion a chain of events that will bring Earth and Fillory crashing together. To save them he will have to risk sacrificing everything.

It’s the story of a boy becoming a man, an apprentice becoming a master, and a broken land finally becoming whole.

Lev Grossman’s new novel THE BRIGHT SWORD will be on sale July 2024 Return to Fillory in the riveting sequel to the New York Times bestseller and literary phenomenon, The Magicians, now an original series on SYFY, from the author of the #1 bestselling The Magician’s Land. Quentin Coldwater should be happy. He escaped a miserable Brooklyn childhood, matriculated at a secret college for magic, and graduated to discover that Fillory—a fictional utopia—was actually real. But even as a Fillorian king, Quentin finds little peace. His old restlessness returns, and he longs for the thrills a heroic quest can bring. Accompanied by his oldest friend, Julia, Quentin sets off—only to somehow wind up back in the real world and not in Fillory, as they’d hoped. As the pair struggle to find their way back to their lost kingdom, Quentin is forced to rely on Julia’s illicitly learned sorcery as they face a sinister threat in a world very far from the beloved fantasy novels of their youth.
