Orson Scott Card has the distinction of having swept both the Hugo and Nebula awards in two consecutive years with his amazing novels Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead. For a body of work that ranges from science fiction to nonfiction to plays, Card has been recognized as an author who provides vivid, colorful glimpses between the world we know and worlds we can only imagine. In a peaceful, prosperous African American neighborhood in Los Angeles, Mack Street is a mystery child who has somehow found a home. Discovered abandoned in an overgrown park, raised by a blunt-speaking single woman, Mack comes and goes from family to family-a boy who is at once surrounded by boisterous characters and deeply alone. But while Mack senses that he is different from most, and knows that he has strange powers, he cannot possibly understand how unusual he is until the day he sees, in a thin slice of space, a narrow house. Beyond it is a backyard-and an entryway into an extraordinary world stretching off into an exotic distance of geography, history, and magic. Passing through the skinny house that no one else can see, Mack is plunged into a realm where time and reality are skewed, a place where what Mack does and sees seem to have strange affects in the "real world" of concrete, cars, commerce, and conflict. Growing into a tall, powerful young man, pursuing a forbidden relationship, and using Shakespeare's Midsummer's Night Dream as a guide into the vast, timeless fantasy world, Mack becomes a player in an epic drama. Understanding this drama is Mack's challenge. His reward, if he can survive the trip, is discovering not only who he really is . . . but why he exists. Both a novel of constantly surprising entertainment and a tale of breathtaking literary power, Magic Street is a masterwork from a supremely gifted, utterly original American writer-a novel that uses realism and fantasy to delight, challenge, and satisfy on the most profound levels.

前半部分是後期聖徒的寓言故事,後半部分亂七八糟的都市奇幻。
評分奧森.斯科特.卡特走的城市奇幻風的代錶作之一。一直以為卡特在科幻界的講故事能力已經很牛氣瞭,但是沒想到他在寫奇幻小說中也同樣齣眾。這本講述精靈王Oberon和他老婆Titania的故事,源自莎士比亞的《仲夏夜之夢》。同時,根據文尾的作者的心路獨白現實,這篇小說他原意是寫一個黑人英雄(Black hero)的故事。他並沒有著眼於種族衝突甚至是種族文化的這種深層次的寫法和討論,而是把真個故事放在黑人社區這樣一個大環境中,他並不試圖討論文化和曆史傳統中的黑人文化,而僅僅是如同好萊塢一樣展現齣一個不一樣的黑人英雄就足夠瞭。通篇而言,全書精彩有加,當然,從故事核心看來,小說依舊沒有走齣傳統奇幻小說的影響,尤其是那種城市奇幻風格的套路還是十分明顯。不過這種潛藏的奇妙恰恰是此類故事的精彩之處。推薦。以上。
