Rating: Summary: ? Review: I'm pretty sure it's the Golden Swan, not the Black Beast, that's in this series. There is also a Hal and Alan story in Chance and Other Gestures of the Hand of Fate (which is probably also out of print, but there's a bunch of copies of it floating around).

Rating: Summary: This is a great book!!! Review: My cousin gave me this book when I was about fourteen, along with the Silver Sun and Sable Moon. I'm now 18, and still read and reread the books. I love them!!! The Silver Sun is definitely the best. Everyone should read them. I am also glad to know there are more books about them. The Book of Suns also is about the world Isle that is the world of Alan and Hal.
Rating: Summary: Incredible Fantasy Novel Review: Nancy Springer enthralled me when I was 15 years old with the Silver Sun. Little did I know there were three other books, The White Hart, The Sable Moon, and the Black Beast. The four novels were so incredible you have to read them to really appreciate them. Nancy creates a world we would love to be in, yet in times would not want to be in the fight for. Hal endures great torture, Alan embodies great love. Hal has the deep gray eyes of mystery, Alan the deep blue of love. To know more ... YOU HAVE TO READ THESE BOOKS!
Rating: Summary: A fantastic read :) Review: This book, which is among Ms Springer's earlier works, is a great read. Springer is a great storyteller, so while I was not surprised at the story's end, I didn't mind taking in the sights along the way. I enjoyed Springer's references to the religious/cultural customs of past societies, without bogging the story down with largely unnecessary explanations. They simply add a backdrop which gives the story a richer and more believable flavor. While it is now out of print, the paperback version can be inexpensively obtained from a number of used sources. Give it a try.
