This is a contemporary fantasy classic and not to be missed! Peter S. Beagle brings fantasy to a modern world, but seamlessly blends what we have always loved about the genre since it's beginnings! The story is about a unicorn who realizes she hasn't seen any of her kind in a long while and sets out on a quest to find the other unicorns. Along the way she gathers a group of friends who will have to stand with her when she finds the horrbile fate of her kind. This book will alternately make you laugh and cry, but in a good way. I can't recommend this book enough to lovers of fantasy and just plain good literature.
