5.0 out of 5 stars Favourite in the Series, May 5 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Black Stallion's Courage (Paperback)
I read all the Black Stallion books as a child - and loved all of them - but this one always remained my favorite. It does not have the "high adventure" that frequents many of Mr. Farley's other books (that said, I think the last chapter of this book is the most exciting, and well-written, of the series) but it offers one of the most articulated and lasting pictures of life at the racetrack I have ever come across for either adults or children (the depiction of the "old man" handicapper is especially brilliant).
I think this book is the highlight of the series - joyful and full of all the best excitement the racetrack has to offer. I'm so glad to see it's coming back into print.

5.0 out of 5 stars Riding High, May 20 2001
This review is from: BLACK STALLION'S COURAGE (Paperback)
This was a great book that I could read over and over. The Black is pulled out of retirement to race again so that there will be enough money to rebuild the barn. The Black must race against Eclipse, the winner of The Preakness and the Belmont and definetly the horse to beat and a chesnut horse who's name I forget. I read this book again last summer and I can still replay the race vividly in my mind. This book might notc be my favorite in the series but it is truly riding high!

5.0 out of 5 stars Most memorable yet, Jan 29 2000
By "sarrenya" (CA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: BLACK STALLION'S COURAGE (Paperback)
I am a huge fan of all the books about the Black, Mr. Farley is the king of horse writing. This book, out of all the others, has been my favorite, however...and why? I'm still not sure.

The Black's neverending fire and devotion and heart is shown so vividly in that final race that it left me with a lump in my throat. And I normally do NOT cry or get emotionally jolted at ALL in books OR movies. A 1 star, Ms. Rebecca? Dig a little deeper, my friend. You obviously don't have a taste for writing. Enjoy the book, isn't that what reading is about? And this book is one of the best of all the Black Stallion series. The most memorable showing of the Black's speed, endurance, and heart and love and desire against all odds is in here. If you are a Black Stallion fan, all the reasons you are are in this book. It will touch your heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Farley is THE best horse story writer ever. Period.
He's done it again, but for some reason this story stole my heart out of all the others in the series. It truly lives up to its title. Read more
