Known as the Harry Potter for adults, The Magicians, unfortunately, abbreviates most of its fun parts in the magic school to the benefit of dull adventures in a fairly standard high fantasy land in the latter half.
Positive:

Negative:
|
Interesting urban fantasy setting
|
Dull and underwhelming latter half
|
Likable characters

Doesn’t really offer much that other better fantasy books hadn’t already
|
The various hijinks of learning magic in the magic school are pretty fun
