The Raven Queen (2014)
“Their giant white horses brushed against fragile trees, crumbling scorched bark in their wake. Their huge hoofs thudded down, sending up clouds of thick black soot. She could only imagine what the forest must be feeling as the army rode through on its way to the White Tower. It must be like nails scraping over an open wound, she thought.
The Morrighan was taking no chances that her prisoners would escape. Danny and Roisin had been lifted up on to the Tuatha horses and their mounts plodded obedi...ently next to hers. Like their boats, Tuatha horses only did what the Tuatha willed. Roisin and Danny could have been expert riders, but nothing they could do would persuade these giant beasts to disobey the orders given to them by Tuatha. The Morrighan had not seemed to be too bothered about the possibility of Nero slipping away into the forest – at least she had made no attempt to restrain him. The grey wolf loped beside them, careful where he put his paws on the sharp carbon of the forest floor.MoreLess
