In The Golem's Eye, book 2 of Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus trilogy, there is a wonderful scene.
The djinni Bartimaeus is in the British Museum in the form of a big, tough minotaur. He has just realized that the enemy he was about to pounce on is way out of his league, so instead he tries to tip-toe daintily away unseen.

ReplyDeleteI meant to comment that even though this was inspired by THE GOLEM'S EYE, this reminds me a lot of THIEVES LIKE US (I am STILL waiting for that one to come up on your publishing schedule. Such a great manuscript!)
