Several chapters in the book Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell involve a magician commissioned by the British government to assist the army during the Napoleonic Wars. The magician is at first unsure how to best use his powers, especially as General Wellington is dubious as to the practicality of magic in warfare. He has to go by trial and error, with some stunts more successful than others.
