Winged Horse of Heaven

Raneous, is the young son of the great Palladon, the swiftest and strongest of the Heavenly Host winged horses. Full of youthful idealism, he is eager to begin his training against the Darkland demons. Finally, after many months of flight training, he accompanies an angelic scouting party on a short mission to the miserable realm of the Borderlands. Excitement turns to terror as the dark forces succeed in separating Raneous from the angelic troop. Utterly lost, seemingly abandoned, and unable to fly in the mortal world, Raneous begins his quest to return to the heavenly realm. Through his friendship with a troubled boy, Brian, Raneous learns to fight the demons lurking in the shadows, but also the darkness of the mind. Can he trust the goodness of what he has been taught? Has the High King abandoned him? Why has no one come for him? Join Raneous and Brian as they battle dark forces of evil, learn the true secrets for victory, and step into the power and freedom of becoming a true servant of the High King. Horse lovers, and warriors of all ages will love to take this coming-of-age journey with the beloved winged colt, Raneous.

Robin S. McDonald graduated from Bellarmine University, Kentucky with a degree in Secondary Education and English. She now lives with her husband, two daughters, an energetic dog and an ancient cat in the great state of Texas. Robin has always enjoyed a good story - especially one that opens up the imagination to new ways of looking at life. Christian fantasy has been an important aspect of her growth as a person and as a Christian both as a child and as an adult. Ironically, fantasy was the avenue that God used to demonstrate to her His amazing reality. It was through fantasy that God revealed to her His creativity in this world. "Winged Horse of Heaven" is her first published work and is to be Book One of the series "The Raneous Chronicles". This book is for both the young and the young at heart; the horse lover, the warrior, and all true servants of the High King.
