Two magicians shall appear in England. The first shall fear me; the second shall long to behold me… Centuries ago, magic thrived in England, embodied by the legendary Raven King, a human child raised by fairies who merged fairy wisdom with human reason to forge English magic. By the early nineteenth century, he is nearly a myth, and England, under a mad King and vibrant poets, has lost faith in practical magic. Then, the enigmatic Mr. Norrell of Hurtfew Abbey emerges, animating the statues of York Cathedral. As news of magic's return spreads, he believes he must assist the government in the war against Napoleon and travels to London. There, he encounters the brilliant but arrogant Jonathan Strange, whom he takes on as a pupil. Together, they captivate the nation with their magical feats. However, their partnership soon devolves into rivalry. Mr. Norrell clings to his secretive nature, while Strange is drawn to the more dangerous aspects of magic. His obsession with the Raven King and the pursuit of forgotten spells jeopardizes not only his relationship with Norrell but also everything he cherishes. This tale weaves a rich tapestry of mystery and beauty, captivating readers until the final page.
