Too late – the god is called and when she offers herself as sacrifice, he rapes her. The community of like-minded, smart people was really what she craved. It’s not until she’s in the midst of summoning a god that she realizes magic isn’t going to provide personal fulfillment. She got a taste, was denied, and now will wreck her life to get more. Janet hardly gets a mention in this book.) For Julia, it feels most like an addiction. (Eliot is in the second half of the book. Both Quentin and Julia are looking to magic for personal fulfillment. The setting is fantastical, but the characters and their problems are very real. Even though half of the book is spent in Fillory (and the other half spent trying to get back to Fillory), it doesn’t feel like a very fantastical book. They succeed, but Quentin is banished from Fillory.įinal thoughts: Quality story. That does not go well for anyone involved.) They get back to Fillory and must help collect seven keys to save magic. Eventually she gets so good she’s invited to work with some high powered hedges who are trying to call a god. (We see regular flashbacks of Julia training among the hedges. Brakebills is no help, so they turn to Julia’s contacts among the hedge witches. Quentin and Julia are frantic to get back to Fillory. Of course he uses and goes through the door it opens. He goes on a journey to the Outer Isles with Julia to collect some back taxes. Long version: Life is perfect in Fillory, but still Quentin is looking for something. Summary: Short version: Quentin and Eliot are on a quest to save magic and Julia has changed Setting: Fillory and various locations around Earth, two years after The Magicians I’m trying to finish a few series before I start new ones, but it’s so hard to remember to go back to a series. This is the second book in the Magicians series.
