The story wisks the reader away to far off mystical Irish islands. (Isle of Man) and there you feel wrapped into the story. This one is a unique unicorn/fantasy story. A great book to read aloud at camp or slumber party for pre-teens and teens, in my opinion.
A Lost Tale
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Just finished this book. It was fantastic. If you like Orson Scott Card's "Alvin Journeyman" or Katharine Kimbriel's "Night Calls" you must read this one. It takes our ordinary world and puts a twist of magic in it. Every page keeps you eager for more. Unicorns, Druids, the "sight" right along side British Intelligence, WWII, and Nazi Germany. Move over Indiana Jones and let Head Druid Taggart tackle the enemy with the help of an odd assortment of characters - both human and animal.

Incredible, Incredible, Incredible story!!! I am saving this book for my children to read. I've been noticing how most of the young adult books I've read and loved and am looking to re-order are unavailable or out-of-print. My recommendation is to scour used bookstores!!

There's something delicate and yet powerful about this author's writing, something that raises him above the mainstream... something like Piers Athony. You find yourself willingly subscribing to this fantastic fictional world where unicorns may just lurk in the woods, and ordinary mere mortals can look Evil in its glaring red eye. I can't recommend Estey's books highly enough!
