Black Easter is a firework of a short novel, shooting out into the dark sky of black magic. The kind of magic that does not aspire to work in service, and that values the short, sharp, spicy taste of exoticism over the genuine discovery of what lies beyond ourselves. Depending on how we like to approach this small book, it can either make for an entertaining read of noir-fantasy or, alternatively, for a thought-provoking parable on modern-day magic.
