SAN DIEGO - Described as "Harry Potter and The Chronicles Of Narnia for adults", The Magicians is a fantasy series about a group of millennials enrolled at a school for magic hidden in New York - the centuries-old Brakebills University for Magical Pedagogy.
The show, the first two seasons of which are now on Amazon Prime Video in Singapore, spins as intricate a mythology as the Potter films based on the books of J.K. Rowling and the Narnia stories written by C.S. Lewis.
