Peggy is a Torch, able to see the fire burning in each person's heart. She can follow the paths of each person's future, and know each person's most intimate secrets. From the moment of Alvin Maker's birth, when the Unmaker first strove to kill him, she has protected him. Now they are married, and Peggy is a part of Alvin's heart as well as his life. But Alvin's destiny has taken them on separate journeys. Alvin has gone north into New England, where knacks are considered witchcraft and their use is punished with death. Peggy has been drawn south, to the British Crown Colonies and the court of King Arthur Stuart in exile. For she has seen a terrible future bloom in the heartfires of every person in America, a future of war and destruction. One slender path exists that leads through the bloodshed, and it is Peggy's quest to set the world on the path to peace.Don't miss other titles in the Tales of Alvin Maker series.©1997 Orson Scott Card (P)2007 Blackstone Audio Inc.

As Always Card is brilliant

Terriffic story the entire cast is brilliant. The story is superb I love these books while in the car or on a flight.

Alvin Maker is my hero!

I can't get enough of this series - as is my truth with all the series by Orson Scott Card I've read thus far into my discovery of his limitless gift of writing. Captivating and endearing. I'm hooked.

book 6? I think YES

really enjoying this series. I look forward to hearing a great ending. thanks Orson Scott Card

Great performance

I really do love Orson Scott card as a storyteller. And this cast did a superb job of bringing this book to life. I found myself making excuses to put off something else so that I could continue listening to the ongoing events at the moment in this novel.

I

Starting to worry. 1 more to go and then who knows how long until author is done with the last part. I hope his political/religious viewpoints takes precedence in his priorities regards to what he writes..
