Sam's Book Report.......2006-12-14

Tom has to take care of the Queen, a retired racing mare who has been bred to the Black, a few days before she is suppose to foal. He stays at his Aunt Emma and Uncle Wilmer's farm. He soon has difficulties with his uncle and this causes problems with the colt. The colt comes unexpectedly and his aunt and uncle are very surprised and this makes his uncle reconsider some of the things he thought he knew. He pays more attention to Tom's methods and soon he and Tom are getting along well. Then the fair comes and Jimmy and George send Tom a letter saying that they'll be there and race Symbol. This is the start of a very long and lasting problem with Jimmy and also gets Tom more experience and ideas on racing.

This is a great book! The plot is wonderful and it is very easy to follow. If you have read any of Walter Farley's other books and have liked them well then this one will probaly be your next favorite book! It doesn't matter if you are a girl or boy, young or old, as long as you love horses and racing then you will love this book!

One of the few that hold up to the original.......2000-12-16

First there was The Black Stallion, then there was The Black Stallion Returns, then there was Son of the Black Stallion. Then the series went rapidly downhill. Of the entire (long) list of Black Stallion books only a few really stand out in my mind years later. This is one of them. Perhaps it's because Farley is writing with a new set of characters, and a new horse - a son of the Black raised for harness racing. Whatever the reason there is freshness to the people and plot here that was sadly lacking in most of the later books.

The Blood Bay Colt.......2000-09-06

Jimmy Creech was old and tired. He had been harness racing at county fairs for over fifty years which was overcrowded with newcomers who raced at "night raceaways" and wasn't making much money anymore. Jimmy's only hope to keep on making money lay between the Blood Bay Colt and his yound driver and apprentice, Tom Messenger.

*If you like horses, than this is a great book to read!

One of the best of the series.......2000-08-17

I have read all of the original Walter Farley "Black Stallion" books, and would have to say that this is one of the best of the sequels (although, since The Black are mentioned only in passing as Bonfire's sire, I don't know if it could strictly be labeled a "sequel"). One of the very few young adult novels I have found that writes about harness racing in an exciting fashion. Reading this book makes me long for the 'good old days' of country fairs where everyone knew everyone else. Walter Farley was gifted not only in bringing the excitement of horse racing and his love of horses in general to life, but in this book the human characters -- Jimmy, Tom, Uncle Wilmer and the others -- are drawn in such a way where the reader can easily visualize them in his or her mind. I couldn't imagine any horse loving person NOT enjoying this book (as well as the follow up "The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt" which I believe is currently out of print, but worth looking for if not only to continue Bonfire's story).

It's a keeper.......2000-07-12

I didn't even know harness racing existed before I read this one. Farley does one of his best jobs; making the races breathless and exciting and Tom's dreams and hopes endearing. A classic Farley tale. Read it.

Book Description

"She's pure gold," raves The Philadelphia Inquirer about redheaded Carolina journalist and inspired snoop Natalie Gold--"spunky, quirky, and lots of fun." Now Nattie's mixing it up with a crazy passel of filthy rich Southerners, a horse-whispering beauty, and one grisly murder . . . In Colt Blood.

When Nattie's boss at the Charlotte Commercial Appeal orders her to find a local horse whisperer to interview, she knows just the person: yellow-haired New Age belle Sarah Jane Lowell, one of the gifted few who claims to have a psychic connection to horses. She not only talks to them, she hears what they answer. Unfortunately, before Nattie can set up a meeting, Sarah Jane vanishes along with her newfound friend: Nattie's eccentric father.

Disturbingly, their sudden disappearance coincides with the brutal murder of Fuzzy McMahon, whose bludgeoned body was found at the very stable where Nattie was supposed to meet Sarah Jane. True, Fuzzy was less than popular, but who would stoop to such a bloody act of violence? Although suspicion has fallen on dark-horse candidate Sarah Jane, Nattie's splitting her money between two other front-runners: blacksmith Bobby McMahon, Fuzzy's redneck of a husband, and his tiresome cousin, Jason Sukon, who can only gain by her death--specifically millions of dollars.

A sophisticated tale of reckless romance and irretrievable violence, In Cold Blood goes beyond murder to explore the mysteries of fear, love, lust, and hate. And as always, when it comes to the manners and morals of the New South, mystery author Jody Jaffe gets it right every time.

An enjoyable canter around the ring!.......2005-12-28

How I wish Jody Jaffe would continue her series with Natty Gold, the Charlotte, NC, fashion writer who is an amateur sleuth and show rider. The characters are well defined, the horse show knowledge is unsurpassed and the mysteries are believable, taking place in accurately-researched settings. Interestingly, the killers in all three books are female, proving that women are up to the task of evil too. In this book, I have a slight nit to pick, and hate to even suggest anything but a 'clear round.' However, the loose ends nagged at me: Natty's Asheville, NC, hotel room is trashed, while the real culprit is more than three hours away from the scene at the time and no other potential trashers are in evidence. Then in the same chapter, Nattie is at an outdoor wedding, also in Asheville, where she is shot at, yes real bullets go whizzing by her head. Again, the real culprit is miles away, and no one else with motive, real or imagined, is anywhere nearby. In both instances, Natty simply goes on and never refers to either incident again, at all. Nerves of steel maybe, but for one so curious, she spends no time trying to find out who wanted her scared, dead or both. Neither event is resolved in any way. I am assuming Ms Jaffe's editors did her no favors in this chapter and did not bother to read before or ahead for the sake of sense. But I still hope Ms Jaffe will revive the series. Three books should be just the beginning!

My favorite book..........2000-01-04

Jody Jaffe's latest hunter/jumper mystery is one of the best books I've read. It's description of the hunter/jumper A circuit is dead on, the end is suprising and satisfying and it had me chuckling throughout. As a teen competing on the A circuit I can identify with Ashlee's life and struggles. A fabulous book.

A fantastic book !.......1999-12-30

Jody has again produced a delightful tale. Her characters are interesting and three dimensional. The story she tells keeps me turning pages and staying up too late at night because I can't put the book down. Great job Jody! I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good mystery, especially if they have any connections to, or a love for horses.

Hi........1999-06-19

I am Ben Shepard, son of Jody Jaffe. Aside from being a great mother, she is a fantastic writer in all genres. After being raised by her for my 14 years on this rotating ball of gas and water, I have realized recently that she is in need of support for her mystery writing career. Write to her at JodyJaffe@Aol.com. Please tell your friends and co-workers about this suburb book written by a exellent mommie. (P.S) (I am chet(and am totally unlike him)

I love Jody's books. And they get better and better! I am at the point now where I ration out each chapter so I do not finish the book too soon. Jody has the horse world society nailed. Anyone who is a horse person will say: Is she spying on me or what? Bring on the next book, please! (and put more chapters in it)

Johnny Hendry was an unusual lawman for the West-he didn't believe in violence. He believed that living by the gun could only end in dying by it-and winding up in an early grave. Then Johnny learned that the man who had been like a father to him all his life had been murdered. Pick Hendry, on his way to register his claim on the gold mine he'd been working, had been cruelly shot in the head. Johnny's philosphy no longer mattered. All he cared about was destroying the man who had killed Pick-and maknig that killer suffer for his crime.
