“Inspired by teaching at a girls’ school that overlooked the Mississippi River, Martin crafted a book that is becoming more and more beloved as readers of his fantasy series track down the writer’s earlier work. Unbelievably, this supernatural gem went out of print for two decades before it was reissued following the success of A Song of Ice and Fire. The book is set in 1857 on the Mississippi River, where steamboat captain Abner Marsh meets a rich gentleman named Joshua York. Plagued by fin...ancial problems, Marsh is promised a magnificent steamboat that will be the pride of the Mississippi River, and will be financed by York. Christened Fevre Dream, the steamer is a majestic beauty – one of silver and blue, charging through the river. The two co-captain the ship, but soon Marsh begins having suspicions about his mysterious financial benefactor, suspicions that are shared by the crew and passengers. York and his friends rarely venture out of the ship during daylight, and when Marsh finds scrapbooks of mysterious deaths in York’s cabin he confronts him.MoreLessRead More Read Less
