This is a very unique perspective on what most see as a sweet, mythological creature, the unicorn.  This is a brief book and the start of a new series.

I’ll be honest; this one is tough for me to rate.  There is a lot of good – unique story, tragic main character, great back story and some intriguing poetry and dialogue.  However, the phrases and flow of the book were inconsistent for me.  At times I thought the story had changed time periods as the manner of speak changes, not just in scenes but with the same character.

First book in a potential series can be tricky as you want to pull the reader in but not give them too much.  I think the author definitely caught my interest and I believe I would give the next book a try to see if he can continue to keep it.
