Okay, I've been on a horrifying and shameful Tolkien binge lately. Literally, horrifying. Three weeks and I read the Hobbit, all three Lord of the Rings books and the Silmarillion. I'm now working on the unfinished tales. Those of you who have access to the box of spells forum (for those who don't... you'll discover many things by the time you reach thirty posts, and access to more forums will be your reward) may have seen my spell for large-scale protective shielding. I got the idea from the Silmarillion. This is the point of this post: to point out the wonderful ideas for spells and things that books can give us. So these books have given me great ones (seeing as the majority of books that include magic are distinctly Harry Potter-esque in the style of the spells used; wave a wand and it will rain candy, the gold ideas are few and far between) and I was wondering: what books have given you great (or good... or average... or bad... you get the point) spell ideas?
