Melody gives us a wild ride in her best-selling young adult trilogy “Arrow the Sky Horse.” It is truly an adventure of a lifetime for horse lovers of all ages. The heart of Huttinger’s series revolves around a beautiful wild stallion, who is part legend, but altogether real for the characters in her books. The family portrayed, with a teenage girl, Meadow, as the central figure ring true in their interactions, and the gang of villains. In the story, it gives outstanding performances of purely evil intentions. When the last line of the last book is read, you will be chomping at the bit for more.

Set in the early 1960’s, the three novels include, “The Discovery,” “The Mystery.” And “The Legacy. The tale involves Meadow finding a cliff dwelling full of Native American artifacts, including an amulet with magical properties, which allows her to have a special rapport with Arrow, the wild stallion. A gang of thieves gets wind of the priceless relics Meadow discovered, and her life and that of her family are endangered.

The many layers of these novels will give young readers a glimpse of life when things were simpler, or were they? Older readers will be transported to a time they probably remember well.
Melody has other books planned, including “Night Wind,” son of Arrow the Sky Horse.
