January 5, 2011. Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. I was so excited to buy this product. The review I read fascinated me! But apparently I didn't read far enough into it. Pegasus is fabulous, as Robin McKinley captivated me page after page. The lives of the pegasi were well told, as was the relationships between them. Robin Mckinley The evil fairy Pernicia has set a curse on Princess Briar-Rose: she is fated to prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into an endless, poisoned sleep. Katriona, a young fairy, kidnaps the princess in order to save her; she and her aunt raise the child in their small village, where no one knows her true identity.
Because she was a princess, she had a Pegasus Princess Sylviianel has always known that on her twelfth birthday she too would be bound to her own Pegasus. All members of the royal family have been thus bound since the Alliance was made almost a thousand years ago; the binding system was created to strengthen the Alliance, because humans and pegasi can only communicate formally, through specially trained Speaker magicians. Sylvi is accustomed to seeing pegasi every day at the palace, but she still finds the idea of her binding very daunting. The official phrase is that your pegasus is your “Excellent Friend.” But how can you be friends with someone you can’t talk to? But everything is different for Sylvi and Ebon from the moment they meet at her binding—when they discover they can talk to each other.
They form so close a bond that it becomes a threat to the status quo—and possibly to the future safety of their two nations. For some of the magicians believe there is a reason humans and pegasi should not fully understand each other More.
If you read her FAQ section on her site, she doesn't say it, but she clearly suffers from bouts of chronic writers block. Her late husband completed If you read her FAQ section on her site, she doesn't say it, but she clearly suffers from bouts of chronic writers block. Her late husband completed the Elements stories without her because she was holding the project up. The Damar books were supposed to be a series and she hasn't done a thing with it since the 1980s. I suspect her books that just end at what feel like it should only be the middle are her hitting a wall, declaring it done and her editor allowing it to go to press to get something out rather than demand a proper end (talking to you Sunshine- I was sure my copy of that was missing another chapter the way it ended). Her early books are cherished favorites and complete thoughts, but I have largely given up on her works because of the non endings she scrambles to justify when fans call her on it. In short, her husband's illness and death aren't 100% to blame for the delay and I wouldn't hold my breath on seeing a sequel soon.
For those who have been commenting on their reviews that the book 'just stopped', I would recommend they go look at Robin McKinley's website. She has specifically stated that this book is NOT a sequel. In fact, Pegasus is ONE book that happens to be printed in three books. Think Lord of the Rings, which technically was divided into six books, published in three, and is ONE book. So, for those who complain about Pegasus ending suddenly, with no conclusion to the end of the book, that's because it For those who have been commenting on their reviews that the book 'just stopped', I would recommend they go look at Robin McKinley's website.

So, for those who complain about Pegasus ending suddenly, with no conclusion to the end of the book, that's because it wasn't supposed to have a conclusion. It's not a series. And by the way, I was just as shocked over the abrupt end as everyone else, and just as miffed that I had to wait 2-3 years for the next one.
But writing is not easy, even for a wonderful author as Robin McKinley, so I'm sure that the waiting will be worth it. I don't know how you follow up the first one, the author did such an amazing job of writing it. Also, her website says that she has another book being published (unrelated to Pegasus next year, called 'Shadows'. She hasn't abandoned her readers, she's just busy with LOTS of writing.:).
2012 2014 2015?!!!! OKAY, I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE EIGHTH GRADE TO READ THIS BOOK. I AM ABOUT TO ENTER SENIOR YEAR! THIS IS NOT OKAY!!!!!!!! I understand that writing takes a while. I'm a writer too.
But you expect fans to still be around after this long? McKinley is lucky Pegasus was amazing. The author is clearly talented.
But if you can't deliver the second one, why publish the first one? I hate cliff-hangers. I was warned one was coming. I read it anyways.

I hate cliff-hangers. I was warned one was coming. I read it anyways. I decided a good book could be worth the wait. I was ready to wait a year, then reach it, satisfied in the glory of whatever came next. I was not prepared to wait over three years. By this time the details of the book are lost to me, I only remember the plot vaguely and the emotions.
At this point though, I doubt if the book is ever going to be published. Robin Mckinley, I could kiss you. I almost thought you were going to leave Pegasus as it was. I'm dying for this book, and I hope you hurry to finish it!
8/25/13 It's been too long since I've checked this page. And there STILL isn't a picture of the cover released?!

I'm beginning to get worried. Robin McKinley isn't exactly young.

Frankly, I doubt we're ever going to get this book. I wish she'd go back to writing again, or just announce her retirement.
That'd be better than this state of limbo. That doesn't seem to be happening.

On a positive note: Thanks for all the enjoyment you've given me in the past, Robin McKinley!, and are life-time favorites. All of the others have been read, and-in most cases-re-read. Many, many, many hours of pleasure and joy-in-the-pursuit-of-reading came from your imagination.
My deepest gratitude! Born in her mother's hometown of Warren, Ohio, Robin McKinley grew up an only child with a father in the United States Navy. She moved around frequently as a child and read copiously; she credits this background with the inspiration for her stories.
Her passion for reading was one of the most constant things in her childhood, so she began to remember events, places, and time periods by what books Born in her mother's hometown of Warren, Ohio, Robin McKinley grew up an only child with a father in the United States Navy. She moved around frequently as a child and read copiously; she credits this background with the inspiration for her stories. Her passion for reading was one of the most constant things in her childhood, so she began to remember events, places, and time periods by what books she read where. For example, she read Andrew Lang's Blue Fairy Book for the first time in California; The Chronicles of Narnia for the first time in New York; The Lord of the Rings for the first time in Japan; The Once and Future King for the first time in Maine.
She still uses books to keep track of her life. McKinley attended Gould Academy, a preparatory school in Bethel, Maine, and Dickinson College in 1970-1972. In 1975, she was graduated summa cum laude from Bowdoin College.
In 1978, her first novel, Beauty, was accepted by the first publisher she sent it to, and she began her writing career, at age 26. At the time she was living in Brunswick, Maine. Since then she has lived in Boston, on a horse farm in Eastern Massachusetts, in New York City, in Blue Hill, Maine, and now in Hampshire, England, with her husband (also a writer, and with whom she co-wrote Water: Tales of Elemental Spirits in 2001) and two lurchers (crossbred sighthounds). Over the years she has worked as an editor and transcriber (1972-73), research assistant (1976-77), bookstore clerk (1978), teacher and counselor (1978-79), editorial assistant (1979-81), barn manager (1981-82), free-lance editor (1982-85), and full-time writer. Other than writing and reading books, she divides her time mainly between walking her 'hellhounds,' gardening, cooking, playing the piano, homeopathy, change ringing, and keeping her blog.
