gothampenguins 's review for:
The Magicians
by Lev Grossman
adventurous
tense
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
I found that the time line jumped forward too often with no warning so I needed to reorient myself frequently. The plot dragged on in places as well. Quentin's character did feel consistent and maybe that's due to the timeline jumps, we did not get a chance to watch him change. Almost no characters had consistency.
