Considering I'm a huge fan of Anne McCaffrey, I've been trying to get all of her books. After reading almost all of the Dragonrider series, I have started on the Acorna series. This book is extremely well written and really captures the attention of the reader. It starts you from the time Acorna arrives on her "home/native" planet. It includes several new characters and catches your interest in a few of them. I really recommend this book to those who like Anne McCaffrey or books involving space. Well worth the read!!!!!
While I truly enjoyed the first book of this series, and the second one was okay; I struggled through this book. The other books had so many likable characters this one had few. Also, the antagonist should never been that stupid.
pleasant, quick read.
Not as good as the first 2, but I am still going to read the rest of the series.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book
As always, another "extra good read" by McCaffrey. The Unicorn Girl is on another adventure!
Very nice read that mixes science-fiction and fantasy. Unicorns are real! and they travel in space...with humans you never know. McCaffery never disappoints and this is a great 7 out of 10. I needed the shelf space!
it kept me on the edge of my seat i could not put it down i finished it in 24 hours and could not wait for the next.
My daughter and I read this when she was in her teens. She loved the character who's both sweet and spunky.I recommend Anne Mc Caferty for any young reader who has progressed past R. H. Stein. For an adult it is a nice well written light read.
McCaffrey does it again. A good light read. Acorna, the Unicorn Girl is no longer alone in the world; she has family! But of course not all is sweetness and light.
