Scott Westerfeld Quote

Don’t worry, he kept saying. The overworld can’t hurt you if you stay calm. I wasn’t calm at all. But my panic was like a poisonous snake at a zoo, staring at me from the other side of thick glass. Only Yamaraj’s touch on my arm kept the glass from shattering. His skin seemed to burn against mine.
