Early Reviewers

A 'road trip' time-travel adventure through history -- on horseback. "The Golden Spark" is the 2nd book of "The Legend of the Great Horse" trilogy, and continues the journey of a teenager lost in time. Fast-paced storytelling whisks readers into the past and entertains with thrills, humor and a colorful cast of accurately portrayed historical characters. Sequel to the author John Allen Royce's debut title (Eclipsed by Shadow) which won the 2009 Eric Hoffer Award for YA Fiction, "The Golden Spark" is a mix of history, action and fantasy ... in this volume our heroine finds herself an unwitting stowaway aboard the ship of a Spanish Conquistador, suffers the affections of nobility at the Court of Versailles, and joins a family's struggles in Merry Old England of the early 1800's.
