A favorite series of mine growing up.
Then things happened fast, almost too fast for Henry. For he was still making his way through the heavy truck traffic when he saw Alec dart past the official at the gate and run toward the plank. At the same time he heard a short high pitched scream, an ominous counterpart of the one he knew so well...the shrill, challenging whistle of the Black! He jerked his head in the direction of the hold door and saw the black colt half in and half out of the ship. A man in blue coveralls, holding the horse, let the lead rope slide through his fingers as, frightened, he backed down the plank attempting to get away from the young colt's striking hoofs.

This is a good, solid sequel to the first two Black Stallion books, though I think it suffers a little in the use of a "deus ex machina" near the end, not something that negates it as a decent read, though, and is probably not something a juvenile would notice. Worth reading, rereading in my case. If you liked the first two books, you should definitely read this one. ( )

The beginning felt clunkier than I remembered it, but I was soon swept into the excitement of the narrative. ( )

For days the Bedouin band had ridden across the white sands of the Rub'al Khali, the Great Central Desert of Arabia, and the steady pounding of the horses' hoofs left a rising cloud of sand behind them.
