THE FULL STORY: A maze of caves created by Spanish Conquistadors on a desolate Caribbean island, a herd of beautiful wild horses living in the island’s hidden interior, and the magnificent stallion that leads them… Author Walter Farley brings us another great series of horse stories with The Island Stallion. Steve Duncan and an archeologist friend travel to Azul Island to explore the caves there. They get lost and happen upon the island’s secret interior where they discover a herd of wild horses unknown to mankind for centuries. The lead stallion, a big flame-colored horse, loses a fierce battle for his herd and, wounded, becomes caught in quicksand. Steve rescues him and tries to bond with the horse. But Flame knows only fear and fury toward humans. With patience, Steve helps him to recover, and eventually to win back his herd. Flame is a magnificent horse, one whose beauty and speed rivals the legendary Black’s. Will Steve take the stallion off the island or leave him there with his herd? Steve and Flame share this adventure and others – read about them in The Island Stallion, The Island Stallion’s Fury, and The Island Stallion Races (where he meets The Black!).
