Book submitted under the .rtf section of the website. Is an excellent scan, minus the ads at the back I got lazy after a while, as well, I was done reading the book so a bit more careless with removing junk. 250 pages or so. From the Book jacket: He gave no command. He barely had time to close his knees before Flame was off, stretching out as he had not done before. Only twice during the long ride up the valley floor did Steve call to him, and then he spoke softly into the pricked ears. "Run, Flame! Run!" He had learned long ago never to shout, only to whisper to Flame. He saw his stallion make for the band, the mares and foals scattering at his swift approach. Flame turned on winged hoofs and Steve shifted with him; then he went all out down the valley and Steve had to close his eyes against the force of the wind Flame created. He pressed his head against the stallion's mane and neck. He was content to let Flame run as long and as fast as the horse liked. He'd know when the ride was over. But now he was one with Flame. Steve Duncan loved Azul island and the band of horses that lived there. But he dreamed and hoped that some day he might race the beautiful and wild stallion Flame. When he has two unexpected visitors from another planet Jay and Flick, things happen that change Steve and Flame's lives forever. This is the third in the Island Stallion series, and Walter Farley's only attempt at science fiction. Fans of the Black Stallion will love this story of the great Red Stallion Flame. Shelley L.
