The Magician's Land

Oh man. I really want to re-read the first two books now. I probably should have before reading this, but who has the time? I read the Wikipedia summaries for the first two and that helped jog my memory, but I think I definitely would have gotten more out of this if I'd had a clearer memory of those last two books.

THAT SAID I still really liked this and still got a lot out of it. It really did seem to tie up a lot of loose ends (... as far as I can remember) while still being exciting on its own. And it really does fit so well with Grossman's themes about magic and fantasy and growing up.

I grabbed this on audio because it was about the length of a trip I was taking, and I'd say the audio was fine. It wasn't like some audiobooks where the narrator detracts from it, nor did the narrator add a whole lot, in my opinion. (Except his Australian accent for Poppy was cute.)
