Caecilia has just heard the singing of her blood in her small royal Elvin community. She's ready to take the next step, to reach adulthood, and all she has to do to get there is partake in the ancient rites of passage: leave the village and bring back the horns of the fabled unicorn, like so many of her ancestors before her. Yet after a chance meeting, Caecilia realizes these magical creatures aren't just another species to be hunted for Elvin and human gain. Falling in love with Aonghus only cements it in her mind. She must travel back to her people and inform them of the treason they are committing. To let them know, before others die needlessly. But she may find her people unwilling to change a tradition that goes back for generations. A high fantasy tale from the world of Aon-Adarcach, The Maiden and the Unicorn is a wonderful tale of love, morality, adventure, and overcoming oppression.
