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

Lev Grossman is a writer who has a knack for blending the fantastical with the familiar, creating worlds that feel both dreamlike and deeply relatable. Born in the U.S. and raised in a family where books were a constant companion, Grossman’s early love for literature blossomed into a career that would forever change the landscape of modern fantasy. His Magicians trilogy, which began with The Magicians, stands as a cornerstone of contemporary fantasy, redefining the genre for a new generation of readers.

What sets Grossman apart is his ability to balance the sprawling, otherworldly elements of fantasy with the grounded, emotional depth of his characters. His stories often explore themes of identity, belonging, and the search for meaning in a world that seems as filled with mystery as it is with mundane reality. The Magicians series is particularly famous for its nuanced take on the idea of escapism—offering a world of magic, but one where even the most extraordinary powers come with their own struggles and flaws.

But Grossman is not just about exploring magic and its limitations—he’s also a keen observer of the modern world. His writing is laced with a touch of melancholy, a reflection of his own journey from a reader lost in dreams to an author with the rare ability to create stories that touch on universal human experiences. With an eye for rich character development and complex plots, he has crafted a series that speaks not only to fantasy enthusiasts but also to anyone who has ever wondered about the deeper layers of life.

Beyond the Magicians trilogy, Grossman has written novels such as Codex, which further illustrates his talent for blending mystery, adventure, and intellectual depth. His works have garnered a loyal following, and his storytelling style—daring, imaginative, and refreshingly honest—has earned him a place as one of the standout voices in contemporary speculative fiction.

A true lover of literature, Grossman often shares his passion for storytelling with readers, emphasizing the role of fiction as a window into both the fantastic and the real. As he continues to weave together narratives that defy expectations, Grossman remains a dynamic force in the literary world, offering thought-provoking journeys into the unknown with every new book.
