The second installment of Orson Scott Card' s best-selling series The Tales of Alvin Maker.
In the first tale of Alvin Maker— Seventh Son— listeners are introduced to a pioneer America where magic works and special talents are utilized in marvelous ways. In this second installment in the Tales of Alvin Maker, we learn more about those talents— both the minor gifts of white people (starting fires, finding water) and the much grander gifts of the Indians, whose lives are filled with a beautiful green music. Young Alvin Maker, the seventh son of a seventh son, is a Maker. Lolla-Wossiky— an Indian whose fate is closely linked with Alvin's— has heard black noise in his head since he watched white men murder his father. Unable to hear the green music he needs to live well, Lolla-Wossiky depends upon alcohol to still the black noise— until he meets Alvin.
