The seventh and final Alvin Maker book, Master Alvin, has finally been published, 23 years after the sixth book and 39 after the first. It looks like some of these eternally unfinished series can eventually get finished. Who knows, maybe one of these decades Patrick or George will surprise us.

I loved the first couple of Alvin Maker books, but later Orson Scott Card declined a lot from his early, extremely good level. Still, seeing this series finished feels like a doorway back into my youth.
