![]() ![]() ![]() Green Rider shines when it comes to making sure that while our non-human protagonist, The Horse, is a little smarter than average…. Horses will stumble at times that aren’t just a plot mechanic. I loved that horses in this book weren’t relegated to being old-timey cars. ![]() I think I would have eaten this book up as a teen and adored Karigan. The protagonist definitely feels very YA in some negative ways, which I’d say is the biggest flaw of the book she’s a little bit *too much* of a teen for an adult audience, though in all fairness she grows quite a bit by the end. It’s a good palette-cleanser after a long or dense novel, as well. Fans of Tamora Pierce or Mercedes Lackey should give this a look. I would recommend this book for anyone who either is a teen, fairly new to fantasy, or a big fan of horses. This was an enjoyable book with a quick-paced plot. When she takes on his mission as her own, she discovers monsters, magic, and some unexpected friends. As her pursuers draw ever closer on her trail, she must use her wits and the magic of the Green Riders in order to deliver the message she carries… A young merchant’s daughter encounters one of the king’s messengers, a Green Rider, near death on the road while running away from boarding school. ![]()
