Atmospherically dense, he describes uncanny encounters in the forest, and in a sometimes very poetic language he lets the reader participate in the emotional world of the protagonists. -Deutschlandfunk Kultur

Silver
by Thomas C. HinkleEverything happened at once. A dark, two-legged creature leaped out from behind the boulder and a snake-like coil shot toward Silver. The loop shot a little too far, striking Silver’s head as it went. Scared stiff, Silver lunged backward, and, as he did so, stepped into the loop with one hind foot. Miguel saw and instantly jerked and held. Silver let out a squeal of terror. Old Dun had seen the unbelievable--a man almost up to her colt! With ears laid back and her white teeth gleaming, she went up that slope with the single, sincere purpose of scattering Miguel over the hillside. So begins the first of many adventures for Silver, the pure white colt of smart Old Dun. He was beautiful to see, his matchless, pure white coat, his long silver mane and tail streaming in the wind, his proud head up, his great dark eyes shining. "Did you ever see a hoss run like that little silver feller?" exclaimed Charlie Barr. "Silver! That'll be his name and I sure must hurry and get my brand on him before some other feller does." That, as you will find, was not so easy.
