A MUST-HAVE for horse lovers! When I first picked it up, I thought, oh geez, more girly horse-stuff....WRONG! Never have I read such great horse fiction! Most of the authors are actually knowledgeable about horses, which is definitely a plus! Some stories are even better than the Black Stallion. Most reccomended stories: "The Most Magical Thing About Rachel"(the author should do a full-length novel of this one!), "When Lightning Strikes", and "Riding the Nightmare"(altho' the ending is a tad cheesy:-).

A friend of mine loaned me this book when they heard that I love Misty Lackey's books. "Stolen Silver" is the story of how the Karsite Alberich was found by his companion.
All of the stories were wonderfully thought provoking and surprisingly deep for a sub-genre that has seen alot of fluff.

I could not put this book down. Highly, highly reccomended for horse lovers(though not all the stories are suitable for children).

It's hard to find horse stories with a sci-fi/fantasy twist, and there are some good ones here. Four hooves up(haha)!

This collection of shorts is a must for any horse lover...while I do not knock the feline...there are a LOT of worthy critters out there and this book does justice to one of them...so watch out kitty it's pay back time!
