THIS BOOK IS THE BEST BLACK STALLION BOOK EVER!,
By ShetanCCF@AOL.com (Wilmington, North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Black Stallion's Ghost (Black Stallion) (Paperback)
I am 12 years old and I LOVED this book! There is NO sex in it, unless you consider the breif mating of The Black and The Ghost. I will admit, however, it does have some pretty detailed deaths and horrors. I stayed up late reading this book it was so good! If you like The Black Stallion- read this book! For added effects- read it at night by flashlight.

The Black Stallion's Ghost,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Black Stallion's Ghost (Black Stallion) (Paperback)
Not for the squeamish! There's forbidden sex, a non-Christian diety and violence. And really not for children ages 9-12, as recommended. I know--I've HAD this book since 9 and hated it then. I re-read it a couple nights ago (I am now in my late 20s) and really enjoyed it. Personally, I would rate the book a 7, but useing the entire Blackl Stallion series as a reference, I gave it a 6. The average reader of the Black Stallion series likes their stories to have all the questions clearly answered, have the horses be the most complex characters and have a definate ending--this book does not have those. I have the feeling Walter Farley wrote this book more for himself than for his audience. He tried to write something he was not known for--a creepy Edgar Allen Poe type book, instead of a regular horse story. Also, he wrote The Black Stallion in 1945 and this was published in 1969--I think he EXPECTED his readers to grow up a bit and want to read something different. If you avoided this book as a kid, give it a try now--you'll be surprised. This is one of the most unique books of the series, requireing you to think and use your imagination as well as to have a love for horses

A must read!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Black Stallion's Ghost (Library Binding)
The Black Stallion's Ghost by Walter Farley left me in suspense so I didn't want to put it down! I recommend this book for children ages 8 to 14. It was neat to learn that Ghost's owner was afraid that Kovi would come and get him. The parts where the horse's routine was described were very interesting.
