Anyone can make magic last a long time, it just takes more effort. In HW sorcerers got a break in manipulating Duration, Range & Number of Targets, but that was eliminated in HQ. Not being to lazy to reach across the desk, I find the "Modifiers to Magic" table on page 100 of the main rules.
> >>Does that mean the Grimoire is "engaged" until the spell is over?
It's engaged in that particualr task, but you may use it to cast a spell on someone else, or a different spell on the same person but a different target ability - it's just that particular combination of Grimoire and Target ability that is "engaged".
If you cast "Augment Sword Blow" from your Grimoire to augment Bob's "Sword and Shield Fighting" ability, then you can't cast any other spell from that Grimoire to augment Bob's "Sword and Shield Fighting". You *could*, however, cast "Stand Fast" on Bob's "Fear Trolls"; or cast "Augment Sword Blow" on *Fred's* "Sword and Shield fighting".
