Synopsis

A magical horse. An impossible challenge. A youngest son destined for greatness.

In Dapplegrim, Andrew Lang presents a classic Norwegian fairy tale filled with wonder, danger, courage, and enchantment. When the youngest of twelve brothers receives only a dapple-gray foal as his inheritance, he makes a choice that will change his fate forever. The horse, named Dapplegrim, proves to be no ordinary creature, but a powerful and magical companion capable of helping his master overcome impossible trials.

Together, the young man and Dapplegrim enter the service of a king, face dangerous tasks, outwit royal schemes, and test the limits of courage and cleverness. With the help of his extraordinary horse, the humble youngest son rises from obscurity toward fortune, love, and a kingdom of his own.

Originally rooted in Norwegian oral tradition and later adapted by Andrew Lang for The Red Fairy Book, Dapplegrim is a timeless tale of bravery, transformation, and the mysterious bond between hero and magical helper.

Beautifully narrated by Mike Polischuk, this enchanting audiobook brings new life to a beloved fairy tale filled with adventure, folklore, and old-world magic.
