1 - The Magician, Michael Scott

This is, sadly, the first book I've finished in 2009. I say sadly because it means I haven't been reading enough. This was a good sequel, but I was a little bored by the end. I'll probably go on to read book 3, though.

The sheer effort of research Scott must have done to compile all these myths and legends into one comprehensive fantasy story is impressive. I like the scheme of Elders, some of whom are known to the humans and others who are not, Next Generation, Immortals, and humani, but it makes following the story and figuring out each character's loyalties and motivations a little confusing.
