I can't help but be overwhelmingly dissappointed by this book. This is a small complaint, the writing makes up for any narrator problems and those are few. Sometimes a character has a certain accent, and then sometimes he does not. All the narrators do all the voices instead of doing certain characters. I usually like Card's voice, but believe he should have left this to the professionals. One of the narrators is one of my favorites and there is one I hate. There are several narrators including Orson Scott Card.

They survive by using charms, beseechings, hexes and potions. A world where people have knacks and certain gifts. This is about a very large family, struggling to survive in a harsh world.
