AAAA I totally did not guess that you were the author of my gift, but in retrospect it makes complete sense. Like, how else would it have been so perfectly tailored to me? Thank you again! Also, definitely agree on the connection to the Diane Duane books. One thing Duane does really well in the Wizard books (in contrast to L’Engle) is to show actual conversations between the kids and their parents about wizardry, and have the parents actually get to experience the magic. The scene where Nita takes her parents to the Moon was one of my favorite parts of Deep Wizardry.
Zachary Gray is, well, he's not exactly a cosmic anything, is he?
Zachary Gray is a cosmic hangnail and I want to punch him. I don’t remember finding him quite so annoying when I was younger, but on my most recent reread I was just, like, wow, Zachary, why are you here?
