520    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 black skin that attracts the eye of wealthy
       white folks and their trained cops. But when he delivers 
       an occult page 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? "LaValle cleverly subverts
       Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos by imbuing a black man with the
       power to summon the Old Ones, and creates genuine chills 
       with his evocation of the monstrous Sleeping King, an echo
       of Lovecraft's Dagon... [The Ballad of Black Tom] has a 
       satisfying slingshot ending." - Elizabeth Hand for Fantasy
       & ScienceFiction "[LaValle] reinvents outmoded literary 
       conventions, particularly the ghettos of genre and 
       ethnicity that long divided serious literature from 
       popular fiction." --Praise for The Devil in Silver from 
       Elizabeth Hand, author of Radiant Days
