![]() ![]() One of the things I liked most was that the characters in the graphic novel were true to the descriptions in the book (unlike in the TV show). Set in the world of The Magicians trilogy, Alices Story retells the events of the first novel through fan-favorite character Alice Quinn. I thought the artwork was well done, a little dark coloring, with darker and imperfect lines to fit the tone of the story. It’s very much to the book, which I appreciated. Having read the first book in The Magicians series, I was able to follow along with the story pretty well. ![]() ![]() It is in the darkness where Alice will discover her true calling and her life, and those friends, forever changed. Alice Quinn is manifestly brilliant, and shes always known that magic is real. But in this magical realm nothing is what it seems to be, and something darker lies behind the spellbinding facade. It’s not soon after graduation when Alice, Quentin, and their friends set their sights on the idyllic setting of Fillory: a place thought to only live in the pages of their favorite children’s books. During her years at Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, she rises to the top of her class, falls in love with Quentin Coldwater, and witnesses a horrifically magical creature invade their dimension. Alice Quinn is manifestly brilliant, and she’s always known that magic is real. ![]()
