The Black Stallion and the Lost City
Steve Farley
When Alec and the Black are hired to work as stunt doubles in a film about Alexander and his horse, Bucephalus, they find themselves on set in the remote mountains of the Greek/Bulgarian border. Movie making involves a lot of waiting, so they set out for a morning of exploring. Chasing an elusive albino mare, the two find themselves caught in an underground river which drops them, half-drowned, beside a city lost in time. Revered at first, they soon discover that they are intended as the entertainment at a horrific ritual . . . sacrifices to the legendary flesh-eating mares in the coloseum of King Diomedes. Another thrilling new Black Stallion novel by Walter Farley's son, which proves that the art of writing a great horse story is definitely in the genes!

Alec Ramsay and his fierce companion, the Black, have found another adventure while waiting on the set for Young Alexander, a new movie being filmed in the remote Bulgarian wilderness near a monastery only accessible by very special people. Alec and his stallion are part of the movie, and soon find that the filmmaking process involves a lot of waiting. So, while on break, Alec mounts the Black and goes exploring. Soon they are on a dangerous and isolated path, which leads them to a strange white mare with ruby eyes.
