47
BY WALTER MOSELEY
Brief Description:
Number 47, a fourteen-year-old slave boy growing up under the watchful eye of a brutal master in 1832, meets the mysterious Tall John who claims he arrived by Sun Ship on Earth. He introduces him to a magical science and also teaches him the meaning of freedom. The story is part mystery, part historical fiction, and part science fiction.
