This is a great si-fi intro, the story of time travlers working for a fearsome woman bent on recreating a pre WWII church, making them go back in time to get all the details right, and getting everything wrong. I have read this about 7-8 times and have loved it more every time!

This is the story of a village during the Black Plague that by choice quarnteened itself to keep from spreading the disease. The first of its kind I have found about the plague, the end was kind of weird, but I really was amazed and couldnt put it down.

I have to say, Louise Erdrich is my favorite author. All of her books are fantastic! They are stories of American Indians in ND and MN. They just tell the stories of this tribes life, their fears and mysteries.
