unless the hawk doesn't pull out of his dive in time

then the book would be called Broke Back Mountain

#2 #4 Only Peregrin I know is a Took and a hobbit in the world created by Tolkien. Star Wars has Millennium Falcon, a ship that has engaged and survived more battles than other ships. If these birds were trained in battle...

#2 Frightful was in a 5 part series starting with My Side of the Mountain, with 4 sequels to it :
(from wikipedia)
On the Far Side of the Mountain (1991), Frightful's Mountain (1999), Frightful's Daughter (2002) and Frightful's Daughter Meets the Baron Weasel (2007)

I have only read the first one, which was damn good.
