REVIEW:
A cute time-travel/fantasy novel involving centaurs and a teenage heroine (and her horse). A friend first loaned me this book when I was around 10 years old. I found it in a used-book shop last November. There is nothing particularly unique about this book (except possibly the story concept), but it still makes for an enjoyable reading experience. And, well... there are centaurs!!
