A solid narrative with a fanciful storyline interesting enough to make my son want to read rather than play with his electronic toys.I remember when I first read this. It had been years after the first Unicorn Chronicles book and I had honestly given up on ever finding a sequel. Then this! I was so happy and devoured it in a single sitting. I adore the characters Bruce Coville has created here. Some great personality. It is one of those books I can't even pick a favorite. I loved getting a much better feel of Luster and those that live there. The stories and histories share show the depth this has. And for a middle
In 1994 at a school book sale while I was in the third grade I came across "Into the land of the Unicorns". I was drawn in by the cover, all black and silver and cool and used my allotted $5 and bought it. I was riveted immediately and read through it quickly only to come to the cliff hanger style ending. Over the next couple of years I scanned book store shelves hoping to find a second book with no luck. In 1998 internet became a larger part of my life and I even tried searching for it with
Alright, alright, I'll admit it. I'm in my freshman year of high school and I still believe in unicorns. A lot of that is thanks to Bruce Coville. I adored this book as a young girl, and have ever since. It made me want to believe in unicorns and magic worlds in a way that nothing else did.I read this book before I read Into the Land of the Unicorns, so the fact that I prefer this one may be a little skewed. Looking back on both, though, I really do think this is the better book; the first is
If you read any of my reviews, you'll know that I'm a fan of Bruce Coville's writing. His Unicorn Chronicles is one of the best series for fantasy readers of any age.Although I first read this book many years ago, I've begun reading the series to my boys, ages 11 and 12, and they absolutely love it.They were both hesitant at first, and neither would read the series on their own, thinking that it was a 'girl's' book. But neither wants me to read anything else now until I've started the series.The
So good on audio! It is narrated by the author and a full cast of voice actors and really well produced. I really enjoyed this second installment in the series and I cannot wait to start the third one. It is a fantasy quest featuring a wide range of fantastical creatures with some twists along the way that reveal much about the protagonist and her family. I also loved how sassy and angsty Metaphil the Griffin was in this audio version! Lots of fun.
A solid middle grade fantasy follow up, but it doesn't quite have the magic of the first book. The story is a bit too predictable and convenient, and I don't think it expanded the world in an interesting way. Whereas I enjoyed the first book, this one felt like a drag at times, and even listening to the audiobook I had a hard time getting through it. I did like a lot of the new characters, but Cara's grandmother is very dull considering how central she was to this story, and as a result I
