I enjoyed this story which featured people and horses who can communicate with each other using images. I especially liked the interactions between Guil and his horse Burn and between Danny and his horse Cloud.

Very imaginative story of people who communicate with alien horses through telepathy. Cherryh does a great job of conceptualizing non-verbal communication with horses.
The back cover says - A forgotten colony on a planet of wild beauty and unimaginable danger. A people held together by a renegade band of outcast heroes, called to their destinies by alien dreams. A world of Riders and Nighthorses, their minds linked together on the knife-edge of an abyss -- for even a single Nighthorse can annihilate the human race. ---- And now one of the Nighthorse has gone insane .......
A little long but a good read
