I loved this book. I enjoyed Shiver too, though I haven't gotten to its sequels because I thought the end was so perfect. But Shiver fits neatly in the paranormal romance niche, while The Scorpio Races is an entirely different breed of story. In fact, the whole time I was reading it, I was exclaiming over how unique it is, especially in the YA age group. It's about colorful, ferocious faery horses who live in the sea and roam one particular island when it storms. Then, they can be captured -- if you're willing to risk your life. Brave men ride the horses on the beach during the yearly Scorpio Races, at which people always die. It's the way of life on this moody, windswept island, home to a people who don't easily break from tradition, even tradition stained with centuries of blood. It's also about an island boy and an island girl, and how the races influence their past, present and future. I loved it. Loved how the island (location unspecified, I believe, though it seemed Irish or Scottish) is absolutely a character in its own right. Loved the beautiful, terrifying horses, whom even the bravest, most experienced riders can never quite trust. Loved Sean and Puck, and the achingly gradual way they open up to each other. I have no idea if this one's a stand-alone, but in this case, I hope so -- because the ending wrecked me in the best way.
