The Last Unicorn

by Peter S. Beagle

A unicorn leaves the safety of her forest after overhearing that she may be the last of her kind. Her search leads to the inept magician Schmendrick, the practical Molly Grue, and a bleak kingdom ruled by King Haggard. To confront the creature imprisoning the other unicorns, she must experience mortality and love. Luminous and bittersweet, this fantasy suits a quiet, misty evening for readers who enjoy lyrical quests, melancholy wonder, and beauty that cannot be possessed.
