Son of the Black Stallion

Our rating: ***

When Alec Ramsey receives the Black’s son from Abu Ja’ Kub ben Ishak, he can’t wait to begin training the young colt for racing, with the help of Henry Dailey, his trainer for the Black. But the colt proves to be more fiery and vicious than his father, with a strong killer instinct. Will Alec and Henry be able to tame the colt and fulfill Alec’s dream of a great racer?

A pretty good horse book with some heart-pounding races. On the whole, the story pacing is fairly consistent, although some parts seemed a bit slow.
