The Legend Of Pendyne: the King, the Boy, the Horse, and the Legend: A fictional historical expression of the timeless struggle for freedom, based on the 16th century Irish rebellion as the British Monarchy consumed Ireland and Wales. D.A. Karr’s two time winner of a Medal of Merit from the San Diego City Library Local Author’s Event and finalist in the San Diego Book Awards, “Best Historical Fiction of 2007 in San Diego”. Winner of a Medal of Merit, San Diego City Library, and finalist “Best Historical Fiction 2007” San Diego Book Awards, marches into the 16th century Irish rebellion as Ireland falls to the British Monarchy. Once a great knight, Albert, the old stable master witnesses the uprising of the evil Black Guard who threatens the peaceful countryside of Wales. Pendyne, the King’s own battle horse and a legend is the last of his kind, is stolen. He and Donegal, his tracker, must find the horse and bring him back.
