- Summary
- "In Gatefather, the third installment in the Mithermages series, Orson Scott Card continues his fantastic tale of the Mages of Westil who live in exile on Earth. Danny North is the first gatemage to be born on Earth in nearly 2,000 years, or at least the first to survive to claim his power. Families of Westil in exile on Earth have had a treaty that required the death of any suspected gatemage. The wars between the Families had been terrible, until at last they realized it was their own survival in question. But a gatemage, one who could build a Great Gate back to Westil, would give his own Family a terrible advantage over all the others, and reignite the wars. So they all had to die. And if the Families didn't kill them, the Gate Thief would--that mysterious Mage who destroyed every Great Gate, and every gatemage, before it could be opened between Earth and Westil. But Danny survived. And Danny battled the Gate Thief, and won. What he didn't know at the time was that the Gate Thief had a very good reason for closing the Great Gates--and Danny has now fallen into the power of that great enemy of both Earth and Westil"--
