“The circle is complex. Hellion magic is always complex [...] I take my knife and slice across the palm of my left hand. Squeezing hard before the wound closes, I sprinkle blood around and inside the magic circle. Hell doesn’t run on prayers or promises. Downtown magic is about reaching out and grabbing what you want, and that requires payment. An offering. Blood.”

Richard Kadrey, ‘Sandman Slim’
