Get ready to take flight on an exhilarating journey alongside Pippa and her majestic winged horse in a captivating two-book series that will ignite your heart. In this ancient Greek tale, written by the talented Kallie George and brought to life by the enchanting voice of narrator Moira Quirk, you will be transported into a world where Pippa must prove herself by conquering the most challenging race of her life.
Picture yourself atop the magnificent Mount Olympus, surrounded by sun-dappled meadows and shimmering waters, where the legendary winged horses of the gods gracefully soar. This ethereal place seems like an unlikely refuge for Pippa, a young girl who has lost both her parents. But fate has smiled upon her, for once every century, the gods descend from their heavenly realm to handpick jockeys for their epic winged horse race. And Pippa is among the chosen few.
With her spirited and undersized winged steed, Zephyr, as her faithful companion, Pippa embarks on an extraordinary quest that will test her limits. She must not only face her own inner demons but also compete against competitors who seem destined for victory. No one, not even Pippa herself, anticipates her triumph in this death-defying race. After all, she is a poor orphan from the stables, an underdog in the realm of divine beings. And while Pippa adores Zephyr with all her soul, there's no denying that he is smaller than the other majestic winged horses racing alongside them.
But the stakes are higher than ever before. Failure to succeed means permanent separation from her beloved Zephyr, as the gods will ensure they remain worlds apart. To remain united with her cherished companion, Pippa knows she must push beyond her limits, dedicating herself to intensive training and demonstrating unwavering courage in the face of adversity. As she delves into a race rife with jealousy, pettiness, and cutthroat competitors, Pippa is determined to prove that love triumphs over all.
This exhilarating adventure, crafted by the beloved Kallie George, will captivate both horse lovers and Greek mythology enthusiasts. If you've ever been enthralled by the Percy Jackson series or touched by the heartfelt tale of "The War That Saved My Life," prepare to be swept away once again. Brace yourself for moments of suspense, heartache, and triumph as Pippa's story unfolds before your very ears.
