Prince of Macedonia

This first episode of Katherine Roberts' epic novel "I am the Great Horse" tells how the young Prince Alexander tames the spirited stallion nobody else could master, and then rides him to victory in his debut battle on the Thracian border. You'll also meet Bucephalas' groom Charmeia, who disguises herself as a boy so that she can look after the horse the other grooms are afraid to touch.

This short ebook is a perfect introduction to the full-length novel originally published in 2006 by Chicken House/Scholastic.

"A wild, surging, enormously readable narrative Bucephalas joins Anna Sewell's Black Beauty and Richard Adams' Traveller as one of the great equine storytellers." Books for Keeps (5 star review).

"Unique and brilliant!" Dr Ian Mortimer (author of the Time Traveller's Guides).
