Card creates an alternate frontier history for America, where folk magic is part of everyday life. The main character is the seventh son of a seventh son, which automatically gives him special magical powers. Card ties together the magic, an alternate American frontier history, certain Indian religious beliefs and his own inimitable story telling to make a marvelous fantasy/adventure story in the saga of Alvin Maker.
