"Not a day has passed but I have sworn that I would set out to find Melisant, once I was free. If you will not come with me, I shall seek her alone," declares Finnglas. Dangers and surprises, both painful and joyful, lie ahead for Princess Finnglas as she desperately searches for her beloved horse. For her companions, Niall and the white cat Pangur Bán, this sea quest will be an unforgettable adventure. Love, forgiveness, and self-sacrifice are the underlying themes of this transfixing tale.

Lyrical Writing,
By Rainy (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finnglas of the Horses (Pangur Ban Celtic Fantasies Series) (Paperback)
We chose the Pangur Ban stories as our "read aloud as a family before bed" books. They are wonderful for reading aloud - her writing is so evocative and lyrical. Stories are simple, characters do evolve, some classic mythic concepts. Our daughter is 10 and we do edit some of the harsher bits. Lovely little series.
