Synopsis
Using the lore and the folk-magic of the men and women who settled North America, Orson Scott Card has created an alternate world where magic works, and where that magic has colored the entire history of the colonies. Charms and beseechings, hexes and potions, all have a place in the lives of the people of this world. Dowsers find water, the second sight warns of dangers to come, and a torch can read a person's future---or their heart. In this world where "knacks" abound, Alvin, the seventh son of a seventh son, is a very special man indeed. He's a Maker; he has the knack of understanding how things are put together, how to create them, repair them, keep them whole, or tear them down. He can heal hearts as well as bones, he build a house, he can calm the waters or blow up a storm. And he can teach his knack to others, to the measure of their own talent. Alvin has been trying to avert the terrible war that his wife, Peggy, a torch of extraordinary power, has seen down the life-lines of every American. Now she has sent him down the Mizzippy to the city of New Orleans, or Nueva Barcelona as they call it under Spanish occupation. Alvin doesn't know exactly why he's there, but when he and his brother-in-law, Arthur Stuart, find lodgings with a family of abolitionists who know Peggy, he suspects he'll find out soon. But Nueva Barcelona is about to experience a plague, and Alvin's efforts to protect his friends by keeping them healthy will create more danger than he could ever have suspected. And in saving the poor people of the city, Alvin will be put to the greatest test of his life---a test that will draw on all his power. For the time has come for him to turn to his old friend Tenskwa-Tawa, the Red Prophet who controls the lands to the west of the Mizzippy. Now Alvin must take the first steps on the road to the Crystal City that was shown to him in a vision so long ago., Using the lore and the folk-magic of the men and women who settled North America, Orson Scott Card has created an alternate world where magic works, and where that magic has colored the entire history of the colonies. In this world where "knacks" abound, Alvin, the seventh son of a seventh son, is a very special man indeed.

- n***k (1705)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe seller was very responsive and extremely quick to ship. The items also matched the pictures / descriptions perfectly, and everything was packaged for maximum shipping safety! I’ll definitely do business with this seller again, guaranteed! They’re easy to work with and the transaction was 100% completely stress free. :) I’ll gladly give this seller my own personal recommendation as a “top tier” eBay seller, complete with a well earned score of a 10/10, A++++++++++Playmobil Ambulance 1985 (incomplete) in original box (Nr. 177190189812)
- o***t (44)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufWell what can I say I ordered the wrong Bewitched Seasons 5 & 6 and requested for a refund or exchange for another Bewitched Seasons if they had any available. The seller was nice and understanding and agreed to refund me once they received the item returned to them. After spending all together for the DVD and shipping cost around $12.00 I found out that my refund after returning the DVD my refund will only be $1.00 and some change. It was my mistake when ordering. Lesson learned. Thanks.

Everything was impeccable: all movie discs accounted for and in great condition, LP (w/ jacket, liner) arrived in one, good looking piece, three paperbacks, two CDs...all in one box that arrived at my front door as scheduled. Discounts everywhere, minimal shipping, and tracking...LOVE a vendor that supplies tracking! PA to CA in great shape! Buy in confidence!! Highly recommended!
