“I felt like I was there.”
“Thoroughly enjoyable read.”
“I could almost hear the author’s voice.”
“An immersive and captivating collection of short stories.”
An intriguing romp through the (mis)adventures of horsewoman,
author, professor, and endurance-rider-of-no-consequence C.S.
Marks, Cry Havoc! is guaranteed to make you smile at least once.
Retold to the best of her recollection, full of humor and occasional
outright wackiness, there’s an experience for everyone. If you’re
an endurance rider, these stories may recall tales of your own. If
you’re a horse enthusiast in other disciplines, you will soon
understand why many long-distance riders are considered
certifiable. And if you’re new to the world of horses, you’ll
understand a lot more about them, but more than that, just read
the book for fun. Because it is.

The author was my college advisor and professor from 1998-2002. Her classes were my favorites and I loved her stories. Siva and Ozzy were there at that time. Both beautiful horses. I remember hearing stories from Australia because that was going on at that time.
This book feels like sitting around a campfire with old friends sharing life experiences. Well written, funny, perfect for any horse lover, from the beginner to the seasoned professional.
