Donna Barr's Stinz

Résumé du livre

"Steinheld 'Stinz' Lowhard is a young centaur recently enlisted in an army that vaguely resembles Germany's during World War I. In addition to being the army's only centaur, Stinz is a country boy out of his element. Stinz's centaur people are portrayed as an ethnic minority largely confined to a single valley, so the differences between Stinz and his fellow recruits are just as much cultural as they are physiological. Perhaps the most affecting episode occurs when Stinz's platoon has to exterminate a group of horses that have come down with anthrax. The compassion and guarded hope makes it relevant." -- Kevin Dole, writer.
