Space Opera/SciFi: Ooh....The Cuckoo's Egg by Cherryh. 100% stand alone. (Pride and most other suggestions have sequels.) I don't see an ebook version with a quick search .

Magical Realism: Not sure what this is. Is it modern/urban Fantasy-ish? The Dresden Files suggestion gives a hint.

Mythology/Folklore: . Don't forget the New World. The Popol Vuh, the Mayan creation myth. There was a really nice (and accurate) animated version using native art on PBS some years back. I was told by experts 20 or so years ago the Tedlock version is the best and I see Amazon has that only in print.
