Cheval d'Orage ( Tome 3 - Galop de feu )

The setting adds a lot of tension and urgency—I'm curious whether real events or personal experiences influenced this choice.

The way the horse's thoughts and feelings are portrayed made me root for him—was this based on real animals or pure imagination?

The pacing felt just right, but I wonder how much planning went into weaving tension and tenderness throughout the story.
