Smashwords book reviews by Sandy Piscitello

  • Storm and the Magic Saddle on Jan. 14, 2012

    I first met Don via Facebook due to our joint love of horses. Don asked me if I would like to read a horse book he had written and I am an avid reader so I readily agreed. I was absolutely amazed at what a fantastic story this was. The characters are gripping and this book has everything...good guys, villains, mystery, and excitement. One other interesting aspect of this book is that it is also educational about horses and horse ownership, as Don expertly works in a lot of educational elements into the story. As an adult, I read every single one of the Black Stallian books written by Walter Farley, and I honestly have not been as excited about a horse story until reading this book! You will totally get caught up in the characters and the story and move from chapter to chapter to see what happens next. The first time I read this book, I read it in one sitting! After reading the book, I volunteered my time to assist in the final editing of this book because I really wanted to see this story get published so that others could enjoy this great book. My only selfish motivation is that I hope this book sells so well that Don will be motivated to write a sequel so that I can continue to enjoy the adventures of Storm and his pasture mates. I know that readers will thorougly enjoy this book, and for the price point of $.99, you will be amazed!
