Live And Let Drood: a Secret Histories Novel (2012)
“Molly snapped her fingers and the air before us split obediently in two, forming into a shimmering portal that crackled with something very like static for a moment, like a television caught between stations, before finally condensing into a familiar silver tunnel. Molly had tried to explain to me that what I see when I look at her magic is largely symbolic; just my mind trying to make sense of something it can’t cope with. Personally, I think she has the same relationship with magic that I have with science; we just pretend we know what we’re doing and hope it all works out for the best. Molly strode into the silver tunnel and I hurried in after her, not wanting to be left behind or have important parts of myself sliced off by the portal closing after me.
Molly had clearly been refining her teleport spell on the quiet, because we didn’t just end up back at the car. Instead, we both materialised inside the Phantom V, sitting in the front seats. Only because it was her spell, Molly was... sitting behind the wheel and I was in the passenger’s seat.MoreLess
