5.0 out of 5 stars A captivating tale of flight and fantasy., March 10, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Stonor Eagles (Library Binding)

James MacAskill Stonor, an artist of international stature has inherited his father's passion for sea eagles and the legends and stories surrounding them.

Cuillin is the last of the nearly extinct sea eagles of West Scotland.

Two strands of this inspiring story are intervowen in a tale of fear and triumph; true flight and great art, where the bleak peaks of Skye and the fjords of Norway inspire both eagle and artist to find renewed life.

This is one book I revisit often when in need of inspiration - and one I NEVER loan!!

A gem - worth the effort to locate.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a deeply moving and outstanding book., August 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Stonor Eagles (Library Binding)

I was continually amazed at the way in which Mr. Horwood has interweaved two stories, and brought them both to a believable and emotionally satisfying ending. I felt myself joined in spirit to the author and his characters as I read this double story about transformation, spiritual obedience and love of the earth. My heartfelt thanks and appreciation go to William Horwood!

5.0 out of 5 stars If possible, even better than Duncton., June 24, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Stonor Eagles (Library Binding)

Intelligent, thought provoking, I was unable to put this book down.

The depth of character and understanding and ability to put these forward in a truly awesome literary work was not a work of fiction, more like the creation of an alternative universe.

This man, who's Duncton Wood series escalated the entire genre to the highest form of art has merged two worlds into an altogether new one.

I cannot praise or rate this novel higher.

I have been altered by reading it.

Thank You William Horwood.
