Our view

Kristen Britain’s “First Rider’s Call” is a big, adventurous second Green Rider novel full of magic, ghosts and journeys into the past. Some readers needed a few chapters to settle in and were then hooked by its capable heroine; others feel the ghostly visits and long passages of backstory pull attention from the present-day plot. Its more than 650 pages are best left to readers already attached to the first book’s world.
