Ambientada en la Inglaterra del siglo XIX durante las Guerras Napoleónicas, esta aclamada novela narra el regreso de la magia al mundo a través de dos hombres de personalidades opuestas: el solitario y erudito Sr. Norrell y el audaz y joven Jonathan Strange. La obra es una mezcla magistral de fantasía histórica, mitología británica y una sátira social que recuerda a los clásicos de la literatura inglesa. Considerada una de las mejores novelas de fantasía contemporánea, la historia explora la rivalidad entre ambos magos mientras intentan restaurar la tradición mágica inglesa, enfrentándose a fuerzas oscuras y a las consecuencias imprevistas de sus propios poderes.
