Thirteenth Child | comment |
Book one of the Frontier Magic series by Patricia C. Wrede. It's set in an Alternate Universe where magic is a normal part of life for the settlers on the Columbian (their version of America) frontier.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Eff Rothmer was born a thirteenth child. Her twin brother, Lan, is the seventh son of a seventh son. This means he's supposed to possess amazing talent — and she's supposed to bring only bad things to her family and her town. Undeterred, her family moves to the frontier, where her father will be a professor of magic at a school perilously close to the magical divide that separates settlers from the beasts of the wild. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
Thirteenth Child / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Professor Rothmer thinks Eff's aborted attempt to blow up her uncle was a fluke, even though he's presumably seen stranger things from his students. | |

Adults Are Useless: Averted. The adults are the people Eff, Lan, and William go to with concerns — for good reason. | |
