Why a Booktrail?
2000s: From Dublin to Siena, it’s a horsey affair…
A Very Good Chance
What you need to know before your trail
Some people step through a wardrobe to find adventure, but Minty follows the twisty-turny trees into Nettlebog. There she finds Ned Buckley – the moody, mysterious boy who never talks at school. As Minty’s world disintegrates around her she searches for refuge in Nettlebog, and she discovers more about Ned: he’s able to ride wild horses. And he knows things about the human race that will save her.
Or there’s a very good chance at least.

This square is a theatre for the most ancient show on town. An ancient horse race:
“Many will tell you that it is the greatest, most terryfing race in the entire world”
