I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I received this book as part of Early Reviewer from LT. The first couple of stories were a bit weird but there are some pretty cool stories if you stick thru it. The Wings of Tempest, the Horse of Tremorden, Mist and Fire would be interesting as longer stories. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. This was a very enjoyable collection of short stories about horse-like creatures. The cover shows a unicorn but it also features flying horses and nightmares. There was no foul language or sex. There were good stores told in multiple universes on space ships, under the sea, on the land, and in the air. Not all of the horses are sparkly goody two shoes. If you like horses or you like fantasy, you should enjoy this. Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

So it was with anticipation that I settled down for several enjoyable reading sessions, since I don’t like to read more than two or three short stories at a time. And I found… exactly what I had anticipated.
In some ways I missed some straightforward horse stories. I may have forgotten one or two in the middle, but there are a great many unicorns (at the start) and a great many flying horses (at the end). I think I might have preferred them to be less clustered, although having clustered some of my stories in my collections, maybe it works best for most people. But regardless of presentation order, these are great stories. I bow to all the authors selected, only some of whose work I have met before. It is truly scary how many wonderful authors there are out there.
Did I have a favourite? Um…the ones that came out of the sea, the one made of steam… neither of those are unicorns or flying horses, funnily enough. Well, the steam one might. As a companion volume to Rhonda’s previous Equus selection, these tend to be more fantastical, but just as good. Maybe not as scary. More uplifting. But they are still horses, and nothing’s as magical as a real horse! ( )
