It's a pretty sweet book about the author's life before, during, and after the Vietnam war. It also has some to do with the other characters and their lives. I don't want to spoil anything, I was just wondering if anybody'd read it. And I recommend it to, it's definetly up there on my list. He's good.
“Can a magician kill a man by magic?” Lord Wellington asked Strange.
Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. “I suppose a magician might,” he admitted, “but a gentleman never could.” — Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
