To Ride the Gods' Own Stallion

Rating:
Summary: Worth the read
Review: Follow the story of Souli as he is sold into slavery to repay the debts of his father. Souli is not very brave, which is why he was sold. I liked this book a lot, it was intruiging and interesting to learn about ancient Assyria. I did not like it as much as the author's first book, "I Rode a Horse of Milk White Jade" but it was still very good. The ending left opening for many possibilities to thrill the imagination, but it was satisfying somehow, you'd have to read it to understand. Definetly worth the read, is "To Ride the God's Own Stallion".

Summary: Finding Courage
Review: It was nice to find a historical fiction book that has a boy as its central character. The adventures and intrigue Soulai finds himself a part of will keep the interest of almost all children. Girls will enjoy the horses in the story, especially the stallion, Ti. A word of caution to parents, there are references to the birth of the prince (coneceived, lain with) that may generate questions. Also, the stable master uses colorful language in addressing the stable slaves. All in all, though, a good book. I would recommend this.
