À propos de ce contenu audio

The same evening Josh Underhill went missing, the black horse appeared on the hill above the house.

Ella knows that words are powerful. So she should have known better than to utter a wish and a curse on the same day. Who is Gus, the boy with the impish grin, who seems to appear in answer to her wish? And what does the black horse want? When Ella finds that her grandmother’s warnings of creatures that dwell in the lake are more than just stories, she and her pony Magpie are drawn into a dangerous, life-saving mission.

Commentaires

Winner, NZ Booklovers Awards Junior Fiction - 2025

'A compelling, lovingly-crafted novel about magic, liminal spaces (of several kinds), language and folkloric fusion. Rachel King’s characters live and breathe. Her dialogue glitters quietly. She discovers new perspectives in inherited narratives to create a world that is familiar yet unexpected, tense and eery with flashes of beauty.' (David Mitchell, bestselling author of Cloud Atlas)

'There is a freshness of imagination in this story combined with prose that delights in exploring language while also telling an arresting tale.' (Books for Keeps)

'Rachael has delivered a story that transcends time and place, playing with old words and mythical creatures in a stunningly original way. I loved it.' (Bren MacDibble, author of The Apprentice Witnesser)

'A tense tale of animal companionship, wild magic and the majesty and awe nature inspires.' (The Sydney Morning Herald)
