Stunning Fantasy Adventure!
Crocken the peddler knew that he made a bad bargain the instant he agreed to the wizard's "request", but he really had no choice. If he did not agree to take the murdered wizard's shadow to the distant country of Armyn, the wizard would let him die of starvation. Crocken grudgingly took the wizard's shadow instead of his own and set out to make the best of it. With the shadow literally ...

Another Wonderful Book by Susan Dexter!
Titch had trained his whole life to become a knight. If his father, a knight, hadn't died suddenly, he felt sure that he would have become a knight's squire and eventually a knight himself. However, his father passed away while Titch was young and so Titch had to train himself and enter whatever contests he could to win arms, armor and other knightly accoutrements. Titch finally felt that he ...

Unusual and Wonderful
I've read Ms Dexter since her first book came out and she hasn't lost her talent for quirky characters and wonderful, terrible worlds. I actually like this better than the other Warhorse books. (Incidently, you don't have to read any of the others in order to enjoy the rest of the "trilogy") This book is full of the reality of farm life before mechanism. More than any of her novels to date, ...

Terrific stuff!
The hero, Leith, is decidedly original. Plagued by bad luck all his life, he has a series of misadventures. He meant to get the gold ring on top of the glass mountian so that he could sell it to keep the marvelous war-horse, Valadan. Unfortunately, the ring came with an unwanted prize. Her name was Kessalia, and she very much resented the fact that he had won her little contest. Various ...

Wonderful Prequel to a great trilogy!
I have read all of Susan Dexter's Esdragon books, so it was thrilling to find this prequel to the Ring of Allaire. Moonlight is a tale of a much younger Tristan, a bumbling apprentice wizard for whom nothing ever seems to go right. This Tale has many little touches which tie it in with the previous trilogy. We see how he meets Thomas the cat, where he finds his silver Unicorn belt buckle, and ...

Wonderful End to a Great Trilogy!
Tristan, apprentice wizard and newly crowned King of Calandra should have been able to rest on his laurels. After all, he had found the ring of Allaire and woken the sleeping princess, winning her as his bride and then he found the lost sword of Calandra, which enabled him to be crowned. But with Nimir, Lord of Winter, Ice & Storm, determined to take over all of the continent, Tristan knew that ...

Ok, but nothing special
The novel features a magician's apprentice and a strapping warrior who ride off to rescue an enchanted sleeping damsel. Although this pretense for the story is unoriginal, the actual plot of the novel is distinct enough to keep it interesting. I found the first half of the novel (rescuing the damsel) very dull, but found the second half enjoyable. The characters are not fleshed-out enough to ...

Wonderful Fantasy Adventure!
Tristan had succeeded where hundreds of other heroes and wizards has failed - he woke the lovely sleeping princess, found the tenth ring, and discovered that he was the rightful heir to the throne of Calandra. Unfortunately, Tristan didn't get to ride off into the sunset and live happily ever after. There were many nobles who disputed Tristan's right to the throne and were willing to wage war ...
