Chrestomanci

If I have a fault, Grant, it’s being too clever.

Christopher Chant, modesty embodied. [From Conrad’s Fate by Diana Wynne Jones] (via kateviardo)

Gabriel de Witt told Chrestomanci that Cat was a strange, reserved boy. To which Chrestomanci answered “Really?” in his most sarcastic way.

Relationships between all three Chrestomancis are summed up in two sentences. Marvellous. [From Mixed Magic by Diana Wynne Jones] (via kateviardo)

Charles liked poetry, because the lines were so short. You could think your own thoughts in the spaces around the print.

elanchana sent: It's because Millie used one of Christopher's lives as an anchor. Presumably you die if you move to another world/series without moving your circle of doubles around as well, but if you have a life to give then you're fine. I THINK that's how it works.

You guys are fast.

inerasabledreams sent: I'm a little confused, in "Conrad's Fate," Gabriel de Witt said that is not possible for a person living in another series, but Millie (Series 10) lives with Christopher in Series 12 ... Someone could explain?

Someone like to help?

damnyoualex sent: Uh... a while back I saw a post on this blog in which somebody mentioned not being able to get hold of magicians of caprona, I can't remember the name of the blog, but I have a copy but no space for it in my new room so I'd be happy to send it on to a prospective reader if they're still searching...

Hey guys!

“All right,” Chrestomanci said, half opening his bright black eyes. “What is it, then?”

Janet bravely cleared her throat. “Er, we need a horse each.”

Chrestomanci groaned softly.

It occurred to him then that he was enjoying himself more than he ever had done in his life. Papa had been right. He really was cut out to be the next Chrestomanci. But suppose he hadn’t been? Christopher thought, making another sizzling signature. It was simply luck that he was. Well then, he thought, something could have been done about it. There had been no need at all to feel trapped.
