There was dusting and sweeping to do, books to be put away. Lovely books. It didn&#039;t matter to Dick if they were leather-bound tomes or paperbacks with garish covers. He loved them all, for they were filled with words, and words were magic to this hob. Wise and clever humans had used some marvellous spell to imbue each book with every kind of story and character you could imagine, and many you couldn&#039;t. If you knew the key to unlock the words, you could experience them all.<br /> <br /> ---Pixel Pixies, Charles de Lint
