Awesome book/series! I'm watching the TV show and reading the books. The books are going to my oldest granddaughter and she's reading them and loves them.

About the book: Amy is worried. Her favorite horse pegusas appears depressed. He used to hang his head out the stall waiting for marion but now that she is dead he is listless. But when heartland's vet runs some tests he discovers that Pegasus is in grave danger. Pegasus has cancer. Amy has to make a descision. Will she put him down or fight with everything she has to save the great horse?

My opinion: GREAT BOOK! This series has a lot of sadness though. In the first book you discover that 1) amy's father was paralized in an acident 2) amy's mother dies in a car acident 3)Amy and her sister Lou have a really rough relationship 4)Mrs. bell dies and her horse is left to starve. In the second book amy carries aroung ALOT of guilt and she faces the world without her parents. and in this book she faces the reality of her own horse pegasus dying. I think the death/sadness is rather repetative. I hope this series doesnt turn out to be as repatative as the recent THOROUGHBRED books. All in all this was a great book and i reccomend it to any horse lover and anyone who collects the series.
