Gripping but lacks something,
By A Customer
This review is from: Son of the Black Stallion (Paperback)
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.

You need to read this!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Son of the Black Stallion (Paperback)
Son of the Black Stallion is about Satan, who is the Black Stallion's first foal. He is given to Alec who plans to train him to be a race horse. But when Satan arrives he is very hateful. He even hates Napoleon. The book goes on forever about how Satan hates everyone and is so mean and refuses to be trained by anybody. Then Henry does something to Satan and Alec must save his horse. Of course after he saves him he totally loves him and will do anything for him. (Does this sound a little like Alec and the Black? Steve and Flame?) So anyway he enters him in a big race. This book isn't the best book in the series but it's pretty good and you have got to read it to understand the rest of the series because alot of the books that come after this one have Satan in them.

Another Great Horse Classic,
By Nicole Wojcik "Nicole" (Belle Plaine) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Son of the Black Stallion (Paperback)
When the Black returns to Arabia, Abu Ishak promises Alec that he will have the Black's firstborn. When that colt arrives, it soon becomes evident that Satan has inherited his father's savage desire to run and to fight. Alec tries to win the horse's love and confidence, but as Satan grows older he becomes dangerous. Alec, away at college, doesn't realize how savage Satan has become. After Satan throws Alec, injuring him; Henry decides to "teach" Satan-with a whip. Henry realizes too late how dangerous Satan really is, and is almost killed. Henry, in a desperate attempt to save his life, almost kills Satan. Now Satan has no reason to trust humans. Can Satan ever be tamed? Will Satan finally learn to trust and love Alec?
