Hoofbeats: Lara at Athenry Castle Book 3

Nine-year-old Larach was captured by one of her father's tuath's worst enemies, the Normans. She is allowed only a few crumbs of bread and a handful of cheese each morning and night. She struggles to stay with her beautiful moon-colored filly, Dannsair. Lara is unsure of what her future holds, but still trudges on to Athenry. Lara disguises herself as a Norman boy to get a job at the Baron of Athenry's Stables. She is overjoyed at working in the same stable barn as her filly, Dannsair. Her stable master realizes that Lara is a natural born rider and asks her to represent Athenry in an upcoming race. If she wins her prize (instead of money) will be Dannsair's ownership. Will the stable master keep his promise? Will Larach win? Will she ever get to go home again? Find out when you read Lara at Athenry Castle. If you are interested in horses, people, adventure, and struggling to suvive, then you will love the Hoofbeats series. I give it 4 out of 5 stars, because some sections are difficult to understand. -Brianna
