I loved the whole trilogy, but I'm always wary of recommending them because some people really can't abide them.

I kind of liked the fact that Quentin makes terrible decisions and never seems to learn from his mistakes, but some people can't get past their impulse to slap him. It felt realistic to me - as someone who is not infallible - and didn't stop me being sympathetic.

If anything I was wary of the second and third books undercutting the first, but I don't think they did.

The Magicians was my favourite book of whichever year it was I read it.
