WARNING: Only the first 1/3 of the story, and the sequels are unwritten (as of June 2023). It's enjoyable, but it's awkwardly incomplete. McKinley, in her blog, is apologetic... but is stuck.

So this fantasy fiction is amazing, but it needs to come with a warning. There is no sequel written as yet . After 10 years, it's probably time to give up hope that we're going to see a happy, or even satisfying resolution to the high…

Wait to read Pegasus until the companion book Robin McKinley intended to write is available. The ending of Pegasus is so abrupt I thought there was a problem with my electronic copy of the book. The ending was jarring; on some level I…

I have reread Robin McKinley's Pegasus novel and this is a wonderful book. There is a lot of energy and flow with a shocking cliffhanger. The sequel, Ebon is still forthcoming.

Don't read this book. Or at least, not yet. Wait for book 2, maybe even 2&3 to come out, THEN read this book. This book has a WONDERFUL cliff hanger ending.... If the other books decide to show up, you should definitely read it, BUT…

I loved this book, and I hope that others do to. It was amazing, and wonderful, and totally mystifying all together. I am so excited for the sequel, but it can even be a great book on it's own. However, the ending wasn't so strong, and…

What? WHAT? W. T. F. !!!! Where is the rest of the book? Perfect classic sword/sorcery/talking-animals gorgeous fantasy storytelling, I loved it -- real I-believe-in-magic love -- right up until the horrible last page. Give me the…

I really like the plot and want to read the sequels (apparently it is one continuing story, but three books, sort of like Lord of the Rings). However, it was sometimes hard to follow. McKinley is a great writer and it was written cleverly,…

The story and story world are very good. But the book could have benefited from an editor's help. Specifically, the author has a tendency to linger over paragraphs in which the main character's thoughts goes in circles, which does not move…

This book is amazing. I can't wait untill the sequal. Everything is in great detail and sounds amazing. I wish it could happen to me. At the end you have a cliff hanger that makes you begging for more. It's amazing.

The book took me a LONG time to read due to the off track thinking of the princess, she went off thinking about a certain topic and continued into grater depth for far too long that made it very confusing for me to follow. Another…

found it a bit confusing at times as the story was a bit staggered and the ending is a complete cliff hanger. hopefully the sequel will come out soon

I found it to be really entertaining until about halfway,where the story seemed to lag.The ending left me feeling like I just wasted 400 pages worth of time.I honestly hope the sequel will be a lot better.

Definitely one of my favourite authors. I'm so glad to find out that there's going to be a sequel! I've read others of hers that kinda left you hanging and there wasn't anything to follow.

Noooooooo! I hate cliff-hangers! It's a great book, but be prepared-the ending is a horrible! There's another book or two coming, but, boy! I'm still reeling from the end! Other than the ending, it's a great book! I'm really looking…

Robin McKinley recently mentioned this is going to be a three-book book, not two. She'll have another book (Shadows, perhaps) coming out before No. 2 does. Can't wait!

I'm very happy with this book, and excited to see what happens with the sequel. I feel as if the story is compelling, and the moves and manipulations are true to the deep interactions we all have.

This was one I adored. It was so sweet, so well-written, and so heroic, that it pulled me in and I could not get out. I sure hope another book follows it, for the end was hanging, but the descriptions of lands and characters and of the…

Ending that felt more like a middle, a deus ex sort of ending too.

So boring the whole way through and then the bad guy wins at the end. I'm guessing this is the first of a series, but I'm definitely not sticking around for the second (and wish I'd given up 10 pages in). Not worth your time!

This isn't a spoiler, it's to help preserve your sanity: before you read this book, know that it's MEANT to be a two-parter and that a sequel is already in the works. If you're like me and didn't know, you're going to get to the end and…

this book was kind of disappointing. i suppose there are good things to say about it, but really, it was too elementary for me, not very suitable to teenagers.

McKinley never fails to delight the fantasy reader. BUT ... it will be 2012 before Pegasus II is out. And yes ... you are left with a lot of questions unanswered.
