Words for which I sought help:
occiput -- the back of the head or skull
Review:
This is an interesting book and can be thought of as a coming of age novel. It is sort of a magic meets tech story and has the push and pull of a nascent love story mingled into it. I like some of the ideas that were put forward for an AI, but the approach to magic was very appealing as well. The story is well assembled and the characters take a back seat (for the most part) to the magic/tech development. I can recommend the book as a good, quick read.
