Quentin Coldwater's life is changed forever by an apparently chance encounter: when he turns up for his entrance interview to Princeton he finds his interviewer dead - but a strange envelope bearing Quentin's name leads him down a very different path to any he'd ever imagined. The envelope, and the mysterious manuscript it contains, leads to a secret world of obsession and privilege, a world of freedom and power and, for a while, it's a world that seems to answer all Quentin's desires. But the idyll cannot last - and when it's finally shattered, Quentin is drawn into something darker and far more dangerous than anything he could ever have expected...

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke. Quentin Coldwater es un chico brillante pero desdichado que vive obsesionado con las novelas de fantasía que leyó en su infancia y que transcurrían en un país mágico llamado Fillory. Cuál no será su sorpresa cuando, inesperadamente, es admitido en una muy secreta y exclusiva Universidad de magia en Nueva York, donde recibirá una rigurosa educación sobre los arcanos de la moderna hechicería y descubrirá la amistad, el amor, el sexo, la bebida. y el aburrimiento. Porque a pesar de los increíbles descubrimientos que ha hecho a lo largo de estos años de universidad, siente que le falta algo. La magia no ha conseguido que Quentin encuentre la felicidad y las aventuras con que había soñado. Pero tras graduarse, él y sus amigos harán un descubrimiento asombroso: Fillory es real, aunque no exactamente como imaginaron en sus sueños de infancia . . . Psicológicamente penetrante y extraordinariamente absorbente, Los magos transita por territorios inexplorados, imaginando la magia como una actividad practicada por personas de carne y hueso, con sus deseos, sus caprichos y sus volubles emociones. Lev Grossman ha creado un mundo sumamente original en el que el bien y el mal nunca son absolutos, el sexo y el amor no son simples ni inocentes y la ambición por el poder tiene un precio terrible.
