About this listen

Set against the colorful and magical backdrop of Ireland, The Grey Horse chronicles a time when the Irish people suffered under harsh English overlords who sought to destroy their culture and way of life. Into the Irish town of Carraroe, a magnificent, completely grey stallion appears. The horse brings with him the promise of better times and magical happenings, for he is actually the shape-shifted form of Ruairi MacEibhir, journeyed to such a time of danger in order to win the hand of the woman he loves.

excellent book. really enjoyed it

Would you consider the audio edition of The Grey Horse to be better than the print version?

Not necessarily better. But it helped understand how the old Gaelic was pronounced

Who was your favorite character and why?

Definitely Ruairi. A very likeable rogue. Full of mischief

Which character – as performed by Steve Coulter – was your favourite?

The horse

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Two moments. The end of the race. And after the capture of the little black king

Any additional comments?

You have to feel sorry for ruairi when they go to geld the grey horse
