The 'Harry Potter' series could also be considered in a sense. Harry starts as an orphan living with his cruel aunt and uncle, and at Hogwarts, he often feels like an outcast or 'loser' compared to some of the more popular students. But as he discovers his magical abilities and his role in the wizarding world, he grows into a powerful wizard.
They often have a journey of self - discovery. Just like in 'The Magicians', Quentin discovers not only his magical abilities but also more about himself as he goes through the challenges at Brakebills. This self - discovery is a key part of their growth from 'loser' to something more. Also, there's usually a lot of focus on the mage's struggle against more powerful and established magical forces. They have to find ways to overcome these obstacles with their limited resources at first.
One 'loser' - themed novel could be 'The Catcher in the Rye'. The protagonist Holden Caulfield often feels like an outsider, a bit of a 'loser' in the eyes of society as he struggles with the phoniness around him. Another might be 'Of Mice and Men'. Lennie, with his mental limitations, is seen as a misfit or 'loser' in the harsh world they live in, yet the story is deeply moving about their dreams and friendship.
I would recommend 'The Bell Jar' by Sylvia Plath. The main character, Esther Greenwood, experiences a mental breakdown and feels like a loser in different aspects of her life. She struggles with her identity, career aspirations, and relationships. Another one is 'Less' by Andrew Sean Greer. The protagonist, Arthur Less, is a middle - aged writer who feels like he has not achieved much in life compared to his peers and goes on a rather comical and self - discovery journey around the world, which is typical of a 'loser novel'.
Sure. 'Mistborn' by Brandon Sanderson features characters with allomantic powers which are like mage - like abilities. They can manipulate metals in different ways which is really cool.
I'm not sure if there are novels specifically titled'mage death novel', but 'A Song of Ice and Fire' by George R.R. Martin has some elements that could be related. There are characters with magical abilities, and deaths of such powerful individuals play significant roles in the complex web of the story. Also, in some of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea novels, there are mages and the cycle of life and death for them is an important part of the overall story.
