About this title

About the Author:

Jilly Cooper is a journalist, writer, and media superstar whose bestselling books include Rivals, Polo, The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous, Appassionata, Score!, Pandora, and most recently, Wicked. She lives with her husband in Gloucestershire, UK.

From Library Journal:

In England the equestrian sport of show jumping is an event in which the competitors can and do achieve superstar status. A well-known British journalist, Cooper has researched her subject carefully in this British best seller chronicling the fictional lives of these hard-working, hard-playing men and women in their quest for fame and fortune. Though her characters are standard typesthe horsey schoolgirl, the unprincipled playboy, the orphaned outcastCooper manages successfully to go beyond the stereotypes, and the characters emerge as genuine and legitimate personalities. Riders is an entertaining, well-written, amusing novel largely due to the author's clever style. Recommended. Lydia Burruel Johnson, Mesa P.L., Ariz.
