About the Book

Sky Stallion is the sequel to Cloud Filly and is an exciting fantasy adventure about a teenage boy (Drake) and his sister (Nellie) who live in a new land that they encountered by accident. They discover unicorns, which are much different than they ever imagined, and many mystical creatures such as fire horses, dragons and cloud unicorns. They are befriended by two sisters, one a mysterious sorceress. The adventure expands on the friendship between Drake and a wild, playful and independent unicorn filly (Cloudberry) and their love of racing. The focus is on Nellie's carefully forged friendship with the evil and unpredictable unicorn stallion Nightcloud. She sees through the evil side and is seduced by his great beauty and strong spirit while developing a friendship.

About the Author

Alea Bushardt lives in North Carolina with her family. Born in 1990, she started her first book at thirteen and the sequel at fourteen. She is currently writing the third book of the series. She began drawing and writing as a form of escape from sensory overload due to her autism. She truly enjoys writing and her love affair with horses inspired her to use them in her novels. Her frustration over the books she was reading was another inspiration to write because they were about the people and not the animals. Alea is an avid equestrian and rides English as well as Western. She is known for her great "seat" and superb control over any horse she rides. She loves to barrel race her horse, Sunny, who is a very sweet and spunky palomino quarter horse. Her preference is natural horsemanship and enjoys riding bareback without a bridle and bit. She wants to own land one day, with lots of green pastures and trees, and train horses, including stallions. Her ideal is to have the pasture come right up to her windows so she can be close to her horses at all times. However, she may just run off, join the circus and become the show girl riding an Andalusian stallion bareback through a ring of fire!
