Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Still a Great Read!
I read all of Walter Farley's books when I was a child, and my son is now reading them and loving them as much as I did. The Black Stallion Mystery starts a bit slower than the earlier books, but not so slowly that my almost 8-year-old got impatient with it. Farley's prose is vivid - cinematic, even - drawing in young readers with rich detailed descriptions of everything from exotic locations to the smells of sour grain. Farley's knowledge of horses and horsemanship remain unparalleled, as is the ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Chasing the Black's Elusive Sire
Devoted fans of Alec Ramsay and his famous Black horse will be delighted
by the mystery lurking--with increasing literary tension and menace--in this YA novel. Apparently parentless (or emancipated) by this novel in the series, Alec is free to choose his own path, usually in concert with his trainer/mentor, Henry. When they read about a pair of unusual Arabian yearlings in New York state they insist on viewing them in person. One look at the horses convinces them that they must meet the owener ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - From playful girl to vengeful woman
For whatever reason, I felt the urge to reread my Black Stallion books, including The Black Stallion Mystery. Filled with the usual perils such as Alec almost getting killed by a wild bull in Spain to he and Henry dropped off in the middle of nowhere. Three yearlings sent to America catch the eyes of Henry and Alec and cause them to wonder if their sire was also the Black's dead sire. Their first destination is Spain with Angel Gonzalez as their host who then takes them by plane to desert country and flies ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - must read series
A group of my students chose this book for a literature circle because the boys wanted a mystery and the girls wanted a "horse story." I talked them into this one, and it was a great hit with all!!! Taking the reader to exotic lands and throwing in the proverbial "red herring" kept my students absorbed the entire time. Great read!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Black Stallion Mystery
When Henry and Alec check out some yearlings they are shocked to see a very strong resemblance to the Black. So they question if the Blacks Sire could still be a live, but they were told by Abu (Blacks Original owner) that his father had died years ago in Arabia. The temptation that the Blacks father is still a live is too much for them. So they decided to head abroad to the man who sold the Yearlings and see if it is true. The Storyline has interesting twists and turns and Alec meets people who he hasn't seen ... Read More
