Things a Tim Powers Protagonist Wouldn't Say:

• "Actually, I have quite a bit of experience with magic."



• "Old scars? Nope, none of those."



• "Please continue. This is all very interesting."



• "The Fisher King? You've been reading too many fantasy novels."



• "I've got a wife back home."



• "I'll do it, for the good of mankind."



• "I won't be much help to you in a fight."



• "No thanks; I don't drink."
