People move to New York looking for magic and nothing will convince them it isn't there.
Charles Thomas Tester hustles to put food on the table, keep the roof over his father's head, from Harlem to Flushing Meadows to Red Hook. He knows what magic a suit can cast, the invisibility a guitar case can provide, and the curse written on his skin that attracts the eye of wealthy white folks and their cops. But when he delivers an occult tome to a reclusive sorceress in the heart of Queens, Tom opens a door to a deeper realm of magic, and earns the attention of things best left sleeping.
A storm that might swallow the world is building in Brooklyn. Will Black Tom live to see it break?

Fascinating！从现实到魔幻的切换衔接极其自然。虽然知道是horror/fantasy但还是被吓到了，不是被The Sleeping King而是when he was stopped by two white male, when he was followed by three white kids, when he was on the train constantly disturbed by white people。
评分This is why literature is so fascinating! Regardless of time and space, one can write in response to those before him! The myth of black men being “superhuman” and “monster like” is not new and sadly still persists today (remember Ferguson?) Taking a twist of Lovecraft’s originally racist tale is quite interesting 以及我一直以为克鲁苏是真的acient mythology……
