The Horse Charmer
by: Selah

This is the first book in the Wild Horse Island series which follows the adventures of a girl named Darby Carter and her adopted mustang, whom she names Hoku (Hawaiian for star).

Darby Carter has loved horses her whole life, so when she hears she and her newly adopted mustang are going to stay at her grandfather's ranch for the summer, she's super excited.

Even though she's never ridden a horse before going to the ranch, she's confident in her abilities to learn. But her grandfather's beliefs that horses are your business partners, nothing more, clash against hers that horses are friends as well as workers. But in time she accepts her grandfather's strict beliefs, as well as growing closer to the ranch and its inhabitants.

I liked this book, and I would rate it three-and-a-quarter stars.

My review of this series
by: Anonymous

This series is about Darby Carter, who goes to live with her Grandfather on a Hawaii Island called Wild Horse Island. Her wild, sorrel Mustang filly is shipped over; this filly was abused before, and while she trusts Darby to a point, she is skittish and hates men- to the point of kicking Cade one of the "hired hands" on Jonah's (Grandfather's) ranch in the chest and injuring him. So far the series is 11 books long, but It's still being written. Darby goes through a lot as she tries to tame and train her dream horse, whose name is Hoku, which is Hawaiian for "star". Many other horse related mysteries and life threatening events come up along the way, and all in all this series is very well written very fun to read. The author is Terri Farley, also the author of the original "Phantom Stallion" series.

Creative and fun!
by: Olive

I love this series, and no worries you don't have to read the first series to understand this book, for that one is about a different girl (I didn't read them, and I was fine.) The book fills u in on what's happening too ;) I love this series! I've read all of them but the last one. I love the characters and they are so original! If your looking for something to read on rainy days, I think u just found it ;)

Phantom Stallion: Wild Horse Island
by: Brittin

I absolutely loved this book! I definitely recommend it! I really want the second book and i'm asking for it for Christmas. The only downside is that I don't think they print them anymore, so they are hard to find. From the fourth book and up (you can find them all on amazon), it gets really expensive. One of them was $500 new on Amazon, but it's because I don't think they print them anymore. Other than that, I love this book!

Phantom Stallion-Wild Horse Island
by: Misty

This series has adventure, bond, and mystery. Darby Carter is a girl who loves horses but never had the change to ride one, living in Los Angeles. Her mom is an actress, and her father lives in Hawaii as a divorced man. But when Darby's mom had to leave home again to make another movie, Darby had 2 choices. Stay with dad on the Mainland, or meet her grandfather who owns a Quarter Horse ranch.

A nice woman talked people into letting Darby own a wild Nevada mustang, when she lied down in the snow with a horse who got hit by a bus during the winter. The horse was shipped in while Darby took a flight from California to Wild Horse Island, Hawaii.

Throughout the books, Darby and her mustang filly share a bond that gets stronger and stronger. They face difficult obstacles, like the volcano eruption, the tsunami, and bad guys.

The series is a great way for any horse-lover to witness the bond between horse and human. Terry Farley definitely outdid herself in this great adventure called Phantom Stallion-Wild Horse Island.

awesome
by: anderson

I love how Terri Farley used the same character from the last phantom stallion so she could connect the stories and keep writing. i also love how at the end of your descriptions you always leave a mystery, it makes me want to sit down and read more!

also in school we had to do a report on our favorite book and i wrote about your awesome phantom stallion series and wrote the longest paper of all! it was your books that inspired me to do that i feel like i am right next to Sam, Jake and Jen on their wild and awesome adventures! of course i loved your wild horse island series a lot too but i couldn't resist writing about the original series as well.

by: Kirsty

Darby saves a beautiful wild mustang filly's life and brings her to her grandfathers ranch in Hawaii. Darby names her Hoku. They create a special bond that no one can brake. Take my advice and read them, they are just so life like.

phantom stallion wild horse island
by: Anonymous

I love this series. Mostly because I LOVE horses and I LOVE Hawaii. Also, because it was well written. It is about a 13 year old girl, Darby, who moved from Los Angeles to Wild Horse Island, an island created by the author Terri Farley. Throughout the series Darby has many different "horsey" adventures with her sorrel mustang Hoku, meaning "star" in Hawaiian. My favorite book of the series is the 11th book, Phantom Stallion Wild Horse Island: Faraway Filly. But I REALLY recommend you read the whole series!

good series
by: Black Mamba Girl

I have read most of the Phantom Stallion: Wild Horse Island series. It is a pretty good series,
but I am not adicted to the series. I am however extremely addicted to WARRIORS by Erin hunter and
GUARDIANS OF GA'HOOLE by Kathryn Lasky. WARRIORS is about feral cats and GUARDIANS OF GA'HOOLE is about owls.

Rain Forest Rose
by: Luna

This book is one from the Wild Horse Island series. It's about a 13-year-old girl (Darby) having adventures alone in the rain forest with her wild, ferocious fiery mustang filly (Hoku) that trusts no one but her. She goes with Darby through thick and thin, and protects her from dangers. Her wild instincts always lead her to safety.

The book is most tasty when you have read #1 and #2 of the series (this is #3).

[Enjoy!!]

(the cover of the book shows Tango, a horse from Darby's friend)

PS.: READ THIS BOOK!! [(-:]
