The Magician King, by Lev Grossman

2nd book in the series being billed as Harry Potter for Adults, although really it’s more like the Narnia books in most respects. I thought it was much stronger than the first book, The Magicians, but really pretty similar. A modern retelling of Narnia books, this one more like Prince Caspian.

I recommend it if you read a lot and like these sorts of books — you know who you are — but probably not if your reading list is super highly constrained and you’re trying to pick the very best books of the year.
