More About This Book

Overview

Jan, the prince of the unicorns, is high-spirited, reckless-and the despair of his mighty father, Korr. Reluctantly, Korr allows Jan to accompany the other initiate warriors on a pilgrimage. Soon Jan's curiosity leads him, along with his friend Dagg, and their mentor, the female warrior Tek, into the greatest dangers-deadly gryphons, sly pans, wyverns, pards, and renegade unicorns. Yet time after time they are rescued, leading Jan to wonder: Am I the heir to a special destiny?

Jan, the prince of the unicorns, accompanies other initiate warriors on a pilgrimage to their lost ancestral home where they will view their destinies in the Mirror of the Moon.

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
Gr 5-9 Aljan the unicorn is impulsive, a hothead. He is also the Prince's son, and he is awaiting the initiation which will make him a warrior. Aljan's destiny is as his name, which means ``Dark Moon,'' and is tied to an ancient prophecy and an ancient evil. Aljan's pilgrimage becomes more than a personal quest to prove his worthiness and to understand the significance of his disturbing dreams. Through vanquishing the deadly wyvern, Aljan is able to confront his hidden past and gain insight into the eternal dance of life and death. The untangling of the satisfying plot and Pierce's ability to foster belief in her unicorns, consistently describing the action as these horse-like animals feel and sense it, are enhanced by her stately use of language and the sense of their history and culture which she creates and sustains. The tale of a heritage realized and a prophecy fufilled is not new, but the vital characters and the unique device of a narrator whose identity remains hidden until story's end give it a fresh appeal. This is not part of the author's ``Darkangel'' trilogy (Atlantic), but it could sustain sequels of its own. Holly Sanhuber, Muskego Public Library, Wis.

    A good read

    This was an awesome book! It was very fast paste and a deep read. I like to get lost in my books and this one had me in a dark forest at night (weird analogy I know).

    I love fantasy and this book was perfect for me. I couldn't put it down it kept me on the edge of my seat. The writing is so well writing that I felt like I was right there with Jan.

    AN AWESOME STORY

    I reccomend this book to everyone who enjoys all types of fantasy novels. Jan is a spirited and 'hot-headed' unicorn. He makes you wish you knew him. I hope everyone gets a chance to read this inspiring story.

    If you didn't have the chance to get it hardback when it first came out now is your chance! This trilogy is awsome!!! I own the first book and I have read it over and over and over! Jan's story touches your heart and makes you wish for more. I recomend it to any unicorn fan out there!
