Only, the Last Dinosaur Book

This has been one of my favorite books, and though it's hard to call it, I might just like Flame better than I like the Black.

Well, after all, this has a whole lost island, a lost civilization as well. That's what makes me love this story - the combination of history and horses.

I love how Steve grows up in the course of this book, becoming a man capable of making the hard decisions. I'm not sure I'd have the strength to do the things he does. The bond he shares with Flame is something I've longed for my entire life and still feel when I re-read this book for probably the 20th time. While this series DOES go a bit crazy / science fiction down the road, it's never stopped me from loving this book. This story, the story of how Steve finds Flame is beautiful and brilliant all by itself.
