Son of the Black Stallion

Rating:
Summary: Gripping but lacks something
Review: A riveting tale that will have you up all night! The Black stallion's son is pure evil. He hates everybody and won't let anybody touch him, much less ride him. He hates Alec, Henry, Mr. Volence--everyone. Alec thinks that with kindess that SATAN will be tame. But Henry, a veteran trainer, thinks otherwise, and is proved right. One day while Alec is at school, Henry fights with the colt--and more unusual things happen than he had ever seen on the tracks...

However, this book lacks the charm or variety of the first two books. It keeps repeating how Satan is a killer and he's worthless.

Review: I don't have to tell you what this book is about~ that would only give away the fun and excitement. But I can tell you that this book is REALLY good. I enjoyed every single word that was written. If you could choose what rating to give this book, I would give it a zillion star rating! Really, I'm serious, it was that good.
EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE THIS BOOK, OR AT LEAST HAVE READ IT. And I don't have to tell you anymore. You can see for yourself~ this is a GREAT book.

Summary: The Promise (You'll see what I mean)
Review: In my earlier review I mentioned a promise made to Alec by Abu ishak. Well Satan, the first son of the Black is that promise. And now Satan is Alec's horse. His parent's are expectng a nice slow pony that will grow up to be a nice slow horse. But Alec has other plans. But the day at the dock when Satan is finally his everyone gets a surprise. Satan is mean, sour and waiting to strike. Will Alec's dreams go down the drain? Or will the son of The black Stallion go down in racing history?

In all I think this was a great book. But let me just get this off of my shoulders. Satan is not The Black, and never will be, So don't expect the magic that happened between Alec and the Black.

Summary: Walter couldn't have wrote it better!
Review: No one could have captured the thrilling tale of a boy named Alec who was givin the first son of the Black Stallion, Satan, any better than Walter Farley. Satan was wild and Was almost untamable until one day Alec saved Satan from strangeling him self and from then on Satan was loyal and loving to Alec and became a great race horse.
