“When the oldest Chatwin, melancholy Martin, opens the cabinet of the grandfather clock that stands in a dark, narrow back hallway in his aunt’s house and slip through into Fillory…it’s like he’s opening the covers of a book, but a book that did what books always promised to do and never actually quite did: get you out, really out, of where you were and into something better.” — The Magicians, Lev Grossman
This art of the Physical Kids finding their first clock-tree in Fillory is by Christopher Shy, who also brought to life the image of Alice arriving at Brakebills.
