It is a SyFy series, and I am still enjoying it grin And... I keep trying to nudge Gryphon into running a version of it as a game. No luck so far, but...


Nudge!

Lol, while doubtful not off the table- but as I said, doubtful.

On a related note, Season 3 is only 1/2 done and they have already been renewed for Season 4!

So I do not have Cable, instead relying upon Hulu, Netflix, Go90 and the CW app. I finally broke down and purchased season 3 of The Magicians on Amazon... there are 4 episodes left in this season and I thought that I would slowly watch the season over the next month and savor it.

Two days later and I have binged and now have to wait for the final four.

And... OH MY! Season 3 is fun. At times I wonder how high the writers are, but at the same time they never fail to entertain. I love the characters, they continue to grow on me. And the Faeries... the Neither Realm Library... lots to learn in Season 3. And an eqpic quest for the One Eyed Conqueror, The Traveler, The Warrior, The Fool, The God Touched, The Tomato Lover, and the Torture Artist... Not to mention Felicia Day!!!!


Still loving this show!

I recently started reading The Magicians, the first book in the trilogy by Lev Grossman, that the show The Magicians is based on. Currently about 200 pages in.

Initial thoughts on the book- WOW! Lots of differences. I am greatly enjoying the book, but the show made some good decisions on what elements to work with.

While the book expands on certain features that the show used, there is a sense of urgency in the episodes that is, thus far, missing from the book.

Lots of intriguing ideas, but definitely a lack of urgency.

The Beast has only made one appearance so far, and that was mild- I should point out that the book starts with Quentin being accepted to Brakebills, and by page 200 Quentin and Alice only have one semester left of school (a 5 year program). So a decent amount of time has lapsed.

While I am enjoying the book, thanks to the series I know something big is coming, and that really amps my anticipation and enjoyment of what is going on so far.

The pacing of the show, right to the drama and terror of The Beast, is one of the things I think the show did quite a bit better than the book, at least so far.

If you like the show, give the book a read!
