This is only currently available as an eBook. I enjoyed reading it this way.
The story is about Fierce. Fierce is a hound and runs in a pack that doesn't really accept her very well. Her mom has abandoned her to become human and she has hard feelings toward humans. She is quite alone but stays with her pack because that is all she has known. Then she meets the Princess with her wild magic. Her life changes from that point on.
The thing I love about he The Princess and the Horse is that once again there are wonderful characters and a great tale with twists and turns. I love this princess. She is spunky and full of wild magic. I love Fierce too. The characters seem so real to me and I enjoy looking into their hearts and knowing more about them.
Great enjoyable story that I will read again I am sure.
A place to record the books I've read. With a short review on each. I strive to never tell too much of the story to ruin it for anyone. BUT, if it is a picture book, I often tell the endings. “Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper.” ― David Quammen

Tris & Izzie by Mette Ivie Harrison
This was a love story and adventure. Mettie Ivie Harrison has such a unique way about writing. I really like this book.
Izzie is in love with Mark. Her mom is a witch. She has a best friend that is acting strangely toward her and she doesn't know why. Then a new boy comes to the school named Tristan. Life changes dramatically when he comes to the school. I'll let you discover that for yourselves but, I never expected the fun in the story plot.

The Princess and the Snowbird by Mette Ivie Harrison
I knew a little better about what to expect with this book. I am getting used to Mette's writing and because of that I think I really enjoyed this book. Mette Ivie Harrison is a really good writer and when she describes things I can imaginie it really well without her going into too much description. I also find myself completely entranced in the book. I really get swept away and it becomes my world as I read her books.

The Monster in Me by Mette Ivie Harrison
I loved this book. I enjoyed the description of running and I don’t even like to run. Natalie is such a great character. She often says things that are not what she is feeling inside just like the rest of us. Natalie is put with loving foster parents with two children. Natalie is not quite sure what to hope before since she has only known her mother and the ups and downs that comes with a drug addicted mother. This book is wonderfully written. I really enjoyed reading it.

The Princess and the Bear by Mette Ivie Harrison

This book is a lot like the Princess and the Hound. I really am surprised Mette is not a guy. The details of Hunting and killing and the unmagic are very clear in my mind and sometimes a bit shocking to me.
Mette knows how to write. She is a great writer. I've never read books like hers before. They to me are in a category of their own. I do like her books but I find myself pausing for a while when asked to describe them. I think her background really helps these books to be well written. Mette is a unique author but a good unique. I really think I like her writing.

The Princess and the Hound by Mette Ivie Harrison

This is a book with grit. If I didn't know the author was a girl, I'd think she was a boy. This book is descriptive about hunting, aggressive and written in the view point of the prince. It's a new kind of writing for me. When I say that I don't mean it bad. It's just different that what I am used to. Mette is a great writer. She is very good.
This plot in this book is developed really well. It is intriguing and makes me ask questions right away. There's so much to this book of such great substance. I really did enjoy it.

Mir, Mirror by Mette Ivie Harrison

This is a book I am really having a hard time deciding what I think about it. While I like the characters and really grew attached to them, I am nagged at the gruesomeness of some of the parts. I think it IS meant for an older audience that what the publisher recommends for sure. Mette Ivers Harrison is a great writer. She really did hold my attention throughout the book but it’s scenes from the book that make me not sure how I feel about it. The gruesome actions didn’t seem justified and I don’t think that justice was felt in the end for those gruesome parts. So, I’ll just tell you that and know that I still don’t know what to think of it.
