The Horse and His Boy (Chronicles of Narnia #3) by C. S. Lewis
Paperback, Very Good condition
Genre: Fantasy / Series
This Chronicle of Narnia book is set takes place during the Golden Age when the Wicked Queen and Winter have been banished -- during the beneficent reign of High King Peter and his siblings: King Edmund, Queens Susan and Lucy. Making brief appearances (sometimes in feline disguise) to rescue or guide the new young protagonists, Aslan himself offers justice and saves Narnia yet again.
Shasta, a ragged, unloved fisher boy from Calormen, yearns to travel to the mysterious lands to the North, but his step father prefers to keep him as little more than a slave. Then a traveling Tarkaan offers to buy the boy for his own even harsher service. When Shasta overhears their plotting he decides to run away and confides in the visitor's horse, which surprisingly can talk, but then he is a native of Narnia where many animals enjoy the power of speech. Horse and Boy decide to escape to freedom in the North.
After learning how to ride, Shasta and his mentor, Bree, encounter other fugitives: a girl named Aravis and her talking horse, Hwin. The four team up (although the kids are somewhat stiff with each other) and have many adventures to accomplish their mission of mercy through the island city of Tashbaan, thence across the vast desert, to reach King Lune at Anvard Castle. Can they arrive before the perfidious Prince Rasbahan and his 200 mounted warriors and their treasonaaous attack?
