Description
In this imaginative alternate history, Orson Scott Card weaves a tale of magic and destiny set in a transformed American frontier. Alvin Maker, born the seventh son of a seventh son, discovers he possesses extraordinary powers that connect him to the very land itself and its indigenous peoples. As Alvin awakens to his mysterious abilities, he must navigate a world where folk magic, Native American spirituality, and European settlement collide in unexpected ways. The novel explores themes of destiny, cultural conflict, and the untapped potential of a young man learning to harness forces beyond ordinary comprehension. Card's richly imagined alternative America challenges readers to reconsider history through the lens of magic and wonder.
