Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
A country schoolteacher and the child of a runaway slave find their destinies entwined with that of Alvin Miller, whose talent for "making" has marked him for destruction by the evil force known as the Unmaker. Card's epic tale of a magical, alternate America demonstrates his skill in graceful storytelling. Recommended, along with Seventh Son and Red Prophet , for most fantasy collections.-- JC

From AudioFile
In the continuing saga of THE TALES OF ALVIN MAKER, Nana Visitor takes us on an incredible trip through a country much like our own. The part that will catch you sleeping is the folklore. A dowser actually finds water with a stick, and a woman reads "hearts" and sees the different paths a life might take. Nana Visitor gives the many characters separate lives of their own. The mix-up boy, who imitates all he hears and understands none of what he says, becomes incredibly real. This tale will take you through highs and lows made real by Visitor.
