A review by knittingchaos
The Magician King by Lev Grossman

3.0

I am reading this on my Hub's Kindle. It is the 1st time I have read a book on there. We will see how it goes.
I do not really like reading on the Kindle, but I made it through.

As far as this book goes, it is a lot like the 1st one... not in Filory, in Filory, not etc. I think it could have use some major editing. Plus, I think it would have been better if they just left a bunch of the crap out and merged it with the third book. I have to say that sometimes the trilogy thing is overrated and the author adds stuff just to pad out the story so he can get 3 books out of 2 books worth of ideas. Grossman is not the only one guilty of doing this.

there are some interesting passages and ideas, but they are watered down with a lot of repetition.
