Description - I am the Great Horse by Katherine Roberts
"I am the dark horse, Bucephalus. I am no black beauty. I am a stallion trained for war." This glorious epic adventure is based on the popular legend of young King Alexander who conquered the known world. Through the eyes of his horse - the unrideable, battle-scarred Bucephalas - history, mystery and adventure unfold. The long-awaited new novel from Branford Boase Award-winner Katherine Roberts. From the moment the battle-scarred horse Bucephalas allows a prince and a runaway girl to sit on his back, he is bound to them for ever. The prince is the young Alexander, who he proudly carries into battle, blazing a trail to the very edge of the world in his master's search for glory and adventure. The girl, Charm, is a lowly stable girl, who brushes away the ghosts Bucephalas sees and forgives his arrogant ways. But unlike the golden Alexander, Charm has darker reasons to stay by his side. Through the eyes of Alexander's horse, history, mystery and adventure unfold.
