Zillah Bethell's middle-grade fiction debut A Whisper of Horses is original, breathtaking, adventurous, and moving. With elements of both science fiction and realism, it is a story of friendship, perseverance, and resilience that readers won't soon forget. Praise for A Whisper of Horses: "[A] densely plotted dystopian novel, Welsh author Bethell's debut. . . . Bethell's inventive heroine propels an action-packed adventure." - Publishers Weekly "Bethell turns all the old formulas on their head. . . . As with all good fantasy, there is a strong requisite of reality. . . the narrative is driven by the skillfully articulated sentiments of a horse-obsessed girl." -The Telegraph (U.K.), five stars "When Serendipity's mother dies, she leaves Serendipity a figurine of a horse, an animal that has long been extinct in the world. Soon, she learns more about her mother's history and discovers a map that might lead to horses. . . . This debut offers up a solid dose of middle-grade adventure." -Booklist
