Lauren St John's horse stories are as good as any of the classics by KM Peyton or Patricia Leitch and this is a marvellous adventure. - LOVE READING 4 KIDS

Lauren St John is the new queen of the older horse novel - THE TIMES (Saturday Review)

A pony adventure story worthy of the Pullein-Thompson sisters. - HORSE & COUNTRYSIDE MAGAZINE on THE GLORY

A National Velvet for modern teenagers. - Alex O'Connell, THE TIMES on THE GLORY

Brilliant - a vast adventure and love story and, I'm trying hard not to say, glorious. - KATHERINE RUNDELL, author of ROOFTOPPERS on THE GLORY

Lauren St John catches the excitement of the sport so well, the determination needed by the riders in order to win, the psychology of horses, the risks involved, the bonds of friendship between competitors - and into this rich mix are warnings against the evil of commercialization and exploitation and the value of a healthy diet! Altogether FIRESTORM is a worthy successor to the earlier titles in the trilogy. Ideal for horse lovers of any age but readers of 12 and up will love it. - THE SCHOOL LIBRARIAN JOURNAL on FIRESTORM (One Dollar Horse series)
