Margo makes a bold stand against the Fairy Queen; Quentin and Penny try to retrieve a lost item. Based upon Lev Grossman's best-selling books, The Magicians centers around Quentin Coldwater, a brilliant grad student who enrolls in Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, a secret upstate New York university specializing in magic. There, amidst an unorthdox education of spellcasting, a group of twenty-something friends soon discover that a magical fantasy world they read about as children is all too real—and poses grave danger to humanity.
