Customer Reviews of Blood Red Horse
Perfect for Medieval unit study An excellent book. My children and I read this book to each other. The only negative is that the old english is not used. It made it a little strange to relate to it being in the middle ages.
For people who like horses and historical fiction
I recommend this people who like horses and historical fiction. Even if you don't normally like books about horses or historical fiction you will like this book. This is an exciting book about the crusades complete with gruesome battlescenes (not too gruesome though). Both boys and girls will like this book. Another reason I really liked this book is that there two plots in one book. It includes a brave women (Ellie), a noble horse (Hosanna), and two boys (Gavin and Will) venturing on the crusades. I also like this book because it is realistic - not everything turns out the way you think it will. Its not always happy, but always exciting. Elli is betrothed to Gavin, but she would rather marry Will. Ellie and Will have been best friends and when both Gavin and Will leave for the crusades, she has to fight on her own with a few monk friends. I can't wait for the next book to come out.
Great book....even for adults.
My daughter checked this book out of her school library and enjoyed it so much she suggested I read it. I found it to be a great book with entertaining and likeable characters. It held my interest throughout and I am now eagerly awaiting the next book, hence the reason I was here on Amazon looking to see if it was out!

>I think anyone who knocks the book for it having inaccurate historical references or the fact that it didn't give an accurate portrayal of the Crusades or their horrors needs to remember that this isn't touted as a historical reference book but a novel about two boys, one girl and the adventure of a lifetime. It's fiction, meant to be entertaining and fun to read. If people want to learn about the Crusades I would recommend an encyclopedia or their local library. If they want to spend an afternoon or two reading a good, fun book about two boys, one girl, an incredible horse and the adventure of a lifetime then read Blood Red Horse,and then get in line for Green Jasper :)!
