2021年紐伯瑞文學獎銀牌獎,泰式奇幻與武俠的交會
以奇幻少年小說之筆,寫雨果《悲慘世界》之主題
於最黑暗的時代,閃耀著最高貴的信念   

      「法律是光,而光亮只照耀在有價值的事物上……」
  總督的話語猶如夢魘,困住了被否定價值的人。
  由逃犯、前科犯、典獄長之女挺身而出,告訴絕望的人們:
  每個人的內心都有餘燼在燃燒。
 
  在查塔納,所有的光都是總督一個人創造的。他在大火災之後出現,為城市帶來和平與秩序。對於出生在南原監獄的阿朋來說,光代表著自由,而他夢想著有一天他可以在其中行走。但當阿朋越獄後,他意識到外面的世界並不比監獄更公平。富人在燦爛的光球下享樂,而窮人則在黑暗中工作。最糟糕的是,阿朋的監獄紋身標誌著他是一個永遠無法真正自由的逃犯。
  
  娜可是監獄長的完美女兒。她一心要追捕阿朋以恢復家族的榮譽。但隨著娜可在查塔納的巷弄和運河中穿梭,她發現了一些祕密,讓她質疑起從小被灌輸的真理。在這個以泰國為靈感的奇幻世界中,逃跑的男孩和決心找到他的女孩,交織出一場刺激的冒險,同時探尋著法律和正義之間的區別。
 
  深受雨果《悲慘世界》所啟發,蘇恩托瓦巧妙建構了一場勝利的對抗,關於——小人物實現變革的巨大力量、階級壓迫與公民不服從等當代重要主題。從陰暗的監獄到寧靜的寺廟,再到繁華多彩的城市……《黑暗中的願望》幾乎擁有一部優秀小說所有吸引人的元素:富有善心的英雄、豐富多元的主題、鮮明的異國色彩、幽默的生命哲思、複雜的社會結構與人性,以及史詩般壯闊迭起的衝突。蘇恩托瓦將上述所有內涵技巧性地融合在一起,並在這部節奏明快的小說中,藉奇幻瑰麗的魔法為故事增添色彩,強化了角色們的內在情感。
 
  這是一本自身閃耀著光芒,同時也告訴讀者如何發光發熱的小說。

本書特色
 
  1.精采描繪紐伯瑞文學獎的永恆主題
  少年小說的永恆主題——描繪希望、勇氣和善心在黑暗的時代閃耀光芒,並成為小人物實現變革的巨大力量,行文巧妙、迷人、瑰麗;角色們時而激昂、時而深沉、時而純真、時而幽默的對話,也勾勒出對於美善世界的追求與願景。
 
  2.宛如雨果《悲慘世界》般震撼人心
  融入人性道德、階級壓迫和被公民不服從運動等重要主題,與角色們畫面十足的動作相結合,締造史詩般撼動人心、感人肺腑的閱讀體驗,其故事情節和人物塑造也與《悲慘世界》互相呼應,讓人拍案叫絕、回味無窮。
 
  3.經典文學為基礎再添當代議題
  以經典文學和少年小說永恆主題為基礎,再添當代議題,如小說中以「光球」這種能源作為資源、財富、自由、秩序的象徵,引導讀者反思能源和種種權力不平等之問題。
 
  4.字裡行間洋溢東南亞異國風味
  以泰國為故事背景原型,體驗泰式生活和泰式文化,如小乘佛教思想、僧侶、熱帶氣候、泰式美食、運河交通……帶領讀者遊歷東南亞,感受濃濃的異國風情。
 
  5.傳遞真實世界並不是「非黑即白」的寓意
  為了井然有序的生活,你是否願意以「個人自由」為代價?這場令人熱血沸騰的人民起義,保留了開放式的結局,並告訴讀者:人民選擇自由的同時,得學會為自由負責,引導讀者反思真實世界的複雜面貌。

Epic!!!!
Format: Kindle
Absolutely addicted from the first page. The twists and turns, world building and character development all come together for the perfect Omegaverse. And let's not forget that spice because knots are life and these are spectacular. Running for book #2 because that cliffhanger was torturous.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.
