Such a good series!
by: HorseCraziestGirl

If you were to ask me what my favorite horse book series was, I would answer Phantom Stallion! I am currently on book 2, but I love it already. You really get to know Sam, Jake, Ace, the Phantom, and Linc (ugh :) so well and they're descrbed wonderfully!

Terri Farley also wrote another awesome book called Wild at Heart, all about mustangs and the kids/young adults that are saving them!

The Phantom Stallion
by: Guess Who

I love this series of horse books! They keep me on the edge of my seat while I'm reading them. You can read the whole series on Epic (there are over 20 of them!)

I love the parts where Sam rides the Phantom (the wild stallion) over the prairie and through the creeks. Great books!

My New Wild Horse Book
by: Terri

Hi, Horse Crazy Girls! I know that some of you are being asked to read more non-fiction books in school and I've written a book that blends non-fiction and my love of horses. Wild At Heart is all about the heritage of the Phantom Stallion and the wild mustangs of the West. If you'd like to check it out, turn up your sounds and go see my book trailer.

BESTBOOKSEVER
by: nvcowgrrl

I don't like the PS book, I love them! It's cool the way Darby comes into the PS world in book 24 and Sam appears in WHI book 10! I still prefer PS to WHI even though they're both cool! I hope there are more special edition novels. I can't wait till Sam's blog is updated, hurry up Terri you're taking forever! About Sam and Jake, they should just stay friends, arguing and teasing each other like! Not all well like how other fans want because it would Totally ruin the books, but I don't agree they're like siblings because my brothers would never be like that ever!

P.S. Keep Writing Terri
Please for your fans? Don't let us down!
From one of your trillion, gazillion, million fans!

where to find Phantom & Terri
by: Anonymous

HI! Are you having trouble accessing the blog? Or did you mean when I had the novella in as a serial? It's only available now as an ebook here: http://www.amazon.com/Phantom-The-Protector-Terri-Farley-ebook/dp/B00HDHRL50/phantomstal04-20

If you don't want to download it to your phone or something, here's a link to a bunch of horsey photos I've taken lately http://instagram.com/terrifarley

PUT JAKE & SAM TOGETHER!!!
by: Terri/Phantom Stallion fan

I love these books. I've read all twenty four and hope that the novella is put as a book or the blog is fixed so I can read it. Please don't stop writing Terri and make SURE you DO put JAKE and SAM together! I love the PHANTOM STALLION series more than WILD HORSE ISLAND series.

I tried this link and it says this is no longer available.
Terri said that she posted them on her blog and it won't open any of the seven chapters. I hope Terri will fix this because i cant bear waiting any longer. i love these series though and hope Terri keeps writing but i wish that the novella could be read as a book and not just kindle.

My favorite series!
by: Gabrielle H.

This is my favorite horse book series I've ever read. The main character, Sam Forster. I love how realistic the books are. It's just like real life! You can actually learn a lot about horses and ranch life from reading these books. I've also read the Wild Horse Island series and I've actually learned a few Hawaiian words just by reading them!

I started reading these books at 9 years old and have been hooked ever since. the exciting yet moving story lines, create a real picture in your mind and i just happen to be re-reading the whole series at the moment. i also think that the fact that there are 24 books in that single series, gives you a feeling of suspense between stories.

I love this Book and the whole series
by: Anonymous

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I actually have the first one in the series, but I rented the rest of them from the library. It was so worth it to finish the whole series. Terri Farley is such a great author that once you start reading these books you feel like you are totally in Sam's world. I loved every one of the books, and if you are horse crazy, like me, you will too! I was Actually sad that the series ended. I wanted to keep reading about Sam and the Phantom stallion. totally worth it!

by: I LOVE MY MINI

This is really the best horses series you'll ever find! I'm proud to say I have all 24 and was really sad when they ended! I have all the Wild Horse Island too. Sam is also mentioned in those books, to sometimes. And, if some of you are having trouble finding all the books, most are out of print... :-/ so i suggest you look on amazon or other online book dealers! that's where i got all mine. also, visit phantomstallion.com!

cool
by: anderson

I love phantom stallion because it is full of mystery, fun and daring adventures of blackie the phantom and his friend ace and sam. it would be cool to be a mustang for a day and run like the wind.

my favorite part was when zanzibar cam to sam in the moonlight. my teacher would want me to do this. the problem in the story is linc slocum wants to catch zanzibar and that problem is solved when he goes to jail.

i also liked it when zanzibar is set free and all is back to normal.

Its been two years since Sams horse, Blackie, threw her in a near-fatal accident.Shes been separated from her family, her ranch, and the wild mustangs she loves.Now shes home again, but her beloved horse has been missing since that fateful day.
then one night, a mustang comes to Sam.Is it Blackie, grown up and gone wild? Is it the legendary stallion known as the phantom? Or could it be both?

Best horse series out there!
by: Sarah

This is the all time best horse series out there! A teenage girl named Sam secretly befriends a wild mustang, while living at her ranch in Nevada, along with riding her own horse, Ace. Each book is action packed with adventures and dreams and feelings that all of us horse people can relate too.

The author, Terri Farley, must be a really good writer, because whenever Sam is mad at someone else in the book, usually Linc Slocum, i'm mad at them too! Each book features a different horse and a new problem or threat to Zanzibar's herd. (Zanzibar is Sams secret name for the Phantom, the wild horse she befriends.) Read throughout the series as foals get born, people get arrested, Sam saves slaughterbound horses, and SO MUCH MORE!! Here are some captions from the backs of some of the Phantom stallion series:

"For the Phantom, there is only one girl. For Sam, there is only one horse. When an ambitious rodeo contractor comes to town, Sam's worried. The woman wants to buy tamed mustangs from local ranchers, including Sam's dad, and doesn't seem to like taking no for an answer. Then Sam spots the Phantom's herd -- without him. She's sure he's been captured by the rodeo, but how will she find him? And even if she does, how can she set him free?" -The Renegade #4

"The Phantom Stallion's new foal is ready to be born, and River Bend Ranch's own Dark Sunshine is the mother. Samantha couldn't be more excited, and she's sure she can handle the new baby while everyone is gone on the annual cattle drive." - Rain Dance #12, by Terri Farley

"Samantha's friend Ryan wants to recapture his lost horse, Hotspot, who has been running free with the Phantom Stallion's herd. But Hotspot's foal, Shy Boots, needs her back at home -- the young horse is having trouble without his mother to protect him. Sam wants to help her friend, and she wants to help the horses. But will Ryan's plans do more harm than good?" -Dawn Runner #21, by Terri Farley

There are 24 books! Read them all!!!!!!

PS: there is a difference between the books I'm talking about and Phantom Stallion- Wild Horse Island ones. I prefer just the Phantom Stallion Series.

by: Emily (from England)

It is about a girl called Sm who fell off her young colt called Blackie. Sam is sent to San Francisco for 2 years and when she returns her horse Blackie becomes the owner of a wild herd. He is now a beautiful grey.

The series is about Sam, Jenifer, Jake, Bryana, Dallas who all live on River Bend, 3 ponies & goldust ranch ranch and of course Ace, Silly Witch and obviously Phantom.

Sam and her best friend Jen get into amazing adventures to save the Phantom Stallion aka Blackie.

Wonderful book
by: Sydney's Mom

I loved the Phantom Stallion. Not only was it a page turner, but it was beautifully written. Listen to this passage:

"If this was a dream, Sam never wanted to awake.

The stallion arched his neck and pawed three times.

Water drops scattered like diamonds."

The other thing I likes about this book is that it weaves in information about horses without preaching. Readers may understand a bit why their parents sometimes get nervous about their girls and horses!

I highly recommend this book.
