Hi Roxanna,
You have done really well.
I couldn't find any glaring mistakes and the chapter flowed with ease and clarity.
Keep going--you can finish this book.
Blessings
Shirley

I could never read my work that many times. haha I know it feels like it though. Editing is the worst while writing is fun.
I didn't see any thing to correct, but I would add some dialogue in the first half. It needs more than just telling to perk it up a bit.

I'm so pleased you posted another chapter, I love this story. At least they all know where Hamish is, and realise they are in for trouble as Hamish would have told everyone the Wahaland's plans. Let's hope our boys win the fight, it's going to be hard.
Only one thing I stumbled on, and that was the word 'led'. Unless it's a Wahaland word, I wonder if it should be, 'lead' both for the leader and for the horses (lead, or, reins) : ... Drake handed the white stallion off to the led (lead) rider.

Well done, my friend, I hope you don't keep us waiting too long for the next part, it's so exciting! :) Sandra xxx

    Yes, I knew 'led' wasn't right and then I used it 4x. ={ Thank so much dear for the helps and the great review. Rox =}

Will you please quit. This is excellent as always Rox! I love this mystical story with all of it's spiritual undertones. You did a fine job. Only one critique or quick edit: Hide nor hair is the correct phrase. You left off the 'n'. Nor will fit better into this setting and period. The picture of the horse galloping through the snow was a good choice.
All my best,
Sally

    Thank you Sally, you are too kind. Yes it is 'nor' I don't know if I meant to put that or if I forgot that's what the saying is. Thank you for the help and the great review. Rox =}

    You?re welcome! I love reviewing your work. It?s always a pleasure. Since I am blind, I miss many little things. I have to proof constantly, then turn it over to my sighted help. I understand completely! Sal

    I didn't know you were blind. You are amazing. I can see, kind of and still never see my mistakes. My brain just put in the right word every time. I use a grammer program now which has helped a lot, but still misses some. Thank you Sally. Rox

    I am not completely blind yet. My doctor said I have a rare case of retinitis pigmentosa. There is a chance I will retain some central vision. Right now, it?s like freak vision. I see through small pie/pin size holes corrected with glasses. I use an IPad Pro and voice text to write. My husband and best girlfriend are my copy editors. I write weekly articles for a Christian eschatology website, as well, so I stay busy with writing.

It's the first time I read one of your chapters or excerpts, but it doesn't feel like you are missing anything...besides the conjunctions, but you have explained why you are not using them. Your sentence structure reminds me of Lee Child's.

So they know that Hamish is with his long lost brother Lucas. But they probably know the power of Lucas combined with the allied help of Hamish, so the battle plans are in the wind, well done, Rox, great episode, blessings, Roy
Typo : Titus threw him the le(a)d to Hamish's 2: but the (le(a)d) rider.3: Titus threw him the le(a)d 4: Drake removed the le(a)d
