Sorcery & Cecelia (or, to give it its full title, Sorcery & Cecelia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot: Being the Correspondence of Two Young Ladies of Quality Regarding Various Magical Scandals in London and the Country) is a Historical Fantasy novel by Caroline Stevermer and Patricia C. Wrede, set in an Alternate History version of Regency England with wizards. It is an Epistolary Novel, consisting of the letters written by Cecelia to her cousin Kate and Kate's letters to Cecelia.Kate is in London being overshadowed by her socially adept and flighty younger sister, and becomes entangled in a feud between the mysterious Marquis of Schofield and the even more mysterious Miranda, who is probably a sorceress. Cecelia is initially chagrined to be stuck at home in Essex, but soon finds plenty to occupy herself, some of which turns out to have a bearing on Kate's problems in London.The first draft of the novel was written as a game between the two authors: Stevermer wrote Kate's letters and sent them to Wrede, and Wrede wrote Cecelia's letters and sent them to Stevermer.Sorcery and Cecelia was originally published in 1988. It was brought back into print in 2003, followed by two newly written sequels, known in the short form as The Grand Tour and The Mislaid Magician.Stevermer has also written a solo children's novel in the same setting, Magic Below Stairs, set in the Marquis of Schofield's servants' quarters. | |

The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry | |
Sorcery and Cecelia / int_1a09b4f9 | comment |
The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: Georgy is the pretty one. Kate is the smart one (not that Aunt Charlotte acknowledges this). Of course, Kate is perfectly pretty herself, it's only that Georgy is so beautiful as to be the talk of the Ton. | |

Blood Magic | |
Sorcery and Cecelia / int_270c1778 | comment |
Blood Magic: This was apparently quite common in pre-Roman times, allowing barbarian sorcerers to level mountains and reroute rivers even with their comparatively crude spellcraft. The ultimate antagonist of The Grand Tour turns out to be a modern enchantress who has rediscovered some of the old spells and is trying to put together a very specific Human Sacrifice to grant herself a tremendous amount of magical power. | |

Royalty Super Power | |
Sorcery and Cecelia / int_3747e7f1 | comment |
Royalty Super Power: In this setting, there are numerous ancient coronation rituals that would make someone the rightful ruler of various nations, tribes, and kingdoms. The exact effects vary, but it usually grants inhuman charisma and improves the ruler's luck, especially when trying to hold onto or reconquer "their" kingdom. Such rituals tend to be extremely finicky in their requirements, however, so they are rarely used in the modern day. | |

Don't You Dare Pity Me!: At the beginning of her Season, Kate has no partners at her first dance except for one who seemed rather distracted during the dance and immediately afterward claimed his dance with her sister, making the sister's magnanimity a little too blatant for Kate. | |

Unskilled, but Strong | |
Sorcery and Cecelia / int_f25b1ae6 | comment |
Unskilled, but Strong: Kate is implied to have at least as much raw potential as Cecy or Thomas, but she only ever cared to learn three spells: one to find things, one to keep her hair up, and one to call Thomas. In The Mislaid Magician, when Edward gets kidnapped and Kate puts her full power behind the finding spell, Thomas says that with the amount of force she gave it, the spell would have found Edward even if he'd been shipped off to Fiji. | |

The Call Has Bad Reception: In The Grand Tour, it is revealed that Kate, who had previously come across as the Distaff Counterpart to Badass Normal James, has just as much magical talent as her cousin Cecelia, but has no interest in developing it. In The Mislaid Magician, Kate thinks that she isn't a very good magician because she can only do three things with magic — locate her husband and/or children no matter where they are, contact her husband and/or children no matter where they are, and keep her hair up. Cecelia points out that those are the only three things that she has any interest in doing that she needs magic to do. | |
