Book description
The second exciting installment in a trilogy about a boy and a magical,
heroic wild horse pitting themselves against dark animal forces to save
a tribe on the verge of extinction. Four Winds and his spirit horse,
Silver Cloud, now face the second task set down by Ghost Horse - to
fetch a feather from the highest mountain. They travel north, crossing
forests filled with bears, coyotes and wolves. Along the way they come
across their old adversary, Thadodaho, the evil thunder spirit with
snake-hair, turtle claws and the feet of a bear. But to get to the
summit of Mount Kivioq they must face their most powerful enemy so far,
in the shape of Iron Eyes: a treacherous and cruel wolf spirit with an
awesome helper . . . Born and brought up in Harrogate, Yorkshire,
Jenny Oldfield went on to study English at Birmingham University, where
she did research on the Bronte Novels and on Children's Literature. She
then worked as a teacher, before deciding to concentrate on writing. She
writes novels for both children and adults and, when she can escape from
her desk, likes to spend time outdoors. She loves the countryside and
enjoys walking, gardening, playing tennis, riding and travelling with
her two daughters, Kate and Eve.
