Justice And Utu (2012)
“Mat scrambled to the bow, the dark mottled wood of his taiaha reassuring in his grasp. ‘Let me through,’ he called, clambering over the sailors, who squirmed aside as if they realized his intentions. I’m a wizard, to them. They believe in me. The fear of letting them down made his hands tremble.
As they left the lee of the ship, White Island loomed above. From the bow he peered through the spray from the waves breaking over the rocks. The oars bit, and the longboat surged towards shore. There w...ere twenty men aboard, including Mat and Wiri. Four would stay with the longboat as it went back; sixteen would engage the enemy, and hold the beach until the second boat arrived.

A thin bubble of air that stripped energy from all it encountered, ideal against small projectiles — and exhausting to maintain. He was vaguely aware of the Rona’s remaining gunmen fanning out, seeking cover in the rocks above, on a wide front.MoreLess
