Acorna: The Unicorn Girl
Acorna: The Unicorn Girl | Anne McCaffrey, Margaret Ball
2 posts | 11 read | 1 to read
Anne McCaffrey and Margaret Ball, two great names in the genre, join forces to create the first in a stunning and magical series about Acorna, The Unicorn Princess.Science fiction and fantasy's most beloved female author turns her unparalleled talents to a brilliant new series written in collaboration with rising star Margaret Ball. The future of an entire species rests on the delicate shoulders of a tiny baby who was set adrift in a lifepod to save her from the vicious hands of Khlevii warriors. Her rescuers, three bachelor asteroid miners, marvel at the unusual child's astonishing growth rate and superior intelligence, naming her Acorna for her other-worldly silvery mane of hair and horn-like bump in the middle of her forehead.Enchanting though she is, young Acorna's unusual talents capture the attention of some unsavory intergalactic inhabitants who are determined to twist her powers for their own gain. But as Acorna gains control over her powers she matures into a worthy contender in the interspatial adventures that pursue her in her desperate search for her "People" and their world.

Found in my favorite indie bookstore. Apparently it is the 1st in a series too. Definitely looks interesting.

Serenity_34 I adored this series as a teen and reread them as an adult. Still a favorite. 6mo

#sweetsummerstack. My daughter and I read this book during summer vacation when she was about twelve. We had so much fun reading it together and it was the first book I thought of for a summer read. ❤️

Born.A.Reader I have almost all of this series (found at a used bookstore and it sounded intriguing enough for me to get all of them) -but I can't seem to get into it. Although it has been a few years...maybe I'll try again? 7y
Bklover @born.a.reader You know- I couldn't say whether to recommend it or not. I recently bought another copy so I could read it again but haven't done it yet. It was eons ago when I read it and I was reading it with my daughter so that it what I remember the most. Let me know if you try it again and I will post if I read my newer copy! 7y
Born.A.Reader @Bklover Will do! 😊 7y
