This review is from: Magic Man (Paperback)

For a fantastical ride, I'd highly suggest Magic Man by A.P. Fuchs. It's a whimsical journey blending comic book imagination with elements of the boogeyman. There is a price that comes with the Magic Man, and sometimes it's higher than you'd like, but often there's a message and a lesson to be learned. In this chapbook, you get to catch a glimpse of the man behind the name.

In the first story "The Exchange," we're introduced to Barry, a man who has never gotten over the woman he first fell in love with. The Magic Man pays him a visit, with the ability to grant him a special wish. To what extent will Barry go, to have his wish come true? If one endures anguish and pain along the road of dreams, will one appreciate the outcome more?

The other story, "Little Boy Who Would," centers on an intrinsic game of cards depicting fear, reason, hope, and wishes. Life itself is a game, and not everyone is a winner all the time.

Also included in this chapbook are striking artwork, poetry, and insightful reflections on the history and thoughts behind the illusive Magic Man.

I think any reader can take something different away from these stories. The messages vary, depending on what issues you may be facing. We'd all like our dreams and wishes to come true, but where's the line that is drawn? One person's selfishness is another person's glory, but who's to say one is more deserving? Entering into the realm of Magic Man may very well give you answers, or ask you to find them out the hard way.
