All the birds in the sky / Charlie Jane Anders.
A tale of science and magic, life and love, and the beginning of our future. From an early age, Patricia Delfine and Laurence Armstead had different - and sometimes opposite - ways of seeing the world. Patricia could talk to animals and even turn herself into a bird, while Laurence built a supercomputer and a time machine (that only went forward two second). As they navigated the never-ending nightmare that is junior high school, they became wary allies, until an enigmatic guidance counselor with a hidden agenda intervened. They didn't expect to see each other again. And yet ten years later, they're both adults, living in the hipster mecca San Francisco, and the planet is falling apart around them. Patricia is a graduate of Eltisley Mae, the secret academy for the magically gifted, and Laurence is an engineering genius who's trying to save the world. As Laurence and Patricia reconnect, they find themselves drawn into the opposite sides of a war between science and magic. And the fate of the world depends on them both. Probably. -- From dust jacket.
