Michael Burson asked Lev Grossman:

Thanks for your wonderful books! A review on the back of The Magicians reads "The Magicians is to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea." Do you think that is an accurate simile?

Lev Grossman No. Personally I find Harry Potter to be pretty strong stuff, in a good way.

But I love that GRRM said that anyway.

Lev, Given your well read background, one could assume that your next foray into fiction would having nothing to do with magical schools and it's alumni. Any idea where your heading next (as you must continue to write fiction)?
