Relation Concering Books Acorna: The Unicorn Girl (Acorna #1)

She was just a little girl, with a tiny horn in the center of her forehead, funny-looking feet, beautiful silver hair, and several curious powers: the ability to purify air and water, make plants grow, and heal scars and broken bones. A trio of grizzled prospectors found her drifting in an escape pod amid the asteroids, adopted her, and took her to the bandit planet Kezdet, a place where no questions are asked and the girl might grow up free. But Kezdet has its own dark secret. The prosperity of the planet is based on a hideous trade in child slave labor, administered by "The Piper" -- a mystery man with special plans for Acorna and her powers. But free little girls have a way of growing into freedom-loving young women, and Acorna has special plans all her own. . .

Write Up Appertaining To Books Acorna: The Unicorn Girl (Acorna #1)

I found this story to be fresh and creative. While the mystery of Acorna the unicorn girl was the center of the book. I found the other characters to be funny, protective and cool. I could see each of them as if they were living and breathing in front of me on a screen. Her details were also extremely imaginative without giving so much that I was unable to picture things myself. This is the book that made me an Anna McCaffrey Fan. :D

Magical and dazzling, this peculiar fantasy novel about a girl who is part unicorn is one of the most interesting books I've read so far this year. Although at times I thought it was veering off the path of imaginative and becoming more typical, I still really enjoyed it.

Okay, just... no.I always wanted to read this book as I read a few of Anne McCaffrey's books when I was younger. I enjoyed them, as they had dragons and I absolutely love dragons.But this... Despite it having a Unicorn Girl, the thing that really ticked me off was the religion aspect.Anne McCaffrey skewered up Islam in her novel, presumingly 'updating' the already existing religion with her own preferences, etc. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the seal of the Prophets. The Quran is

I borrowed this from the library because the premise, frankly, is hilarious. It's a UNICORN PERSON. AN ALIEN UNICORN PERSON. SHE CAN PURIFY PLANTS AND WATER AND HEAL THINGS AND SHE HAS HOOVES FOR FEET OH MY GOD.It's like ridiculous sci-fi candy.

Okay, this is going to be of a review for the entire series of Acorna books because, well, there are alot of them and I would get carpal tunnel if I wrote an individual review of each book.Basically this is the story of 2 asteroid miners who come across a strange space pod that has a little girl that resembles a unicorn inside of it. As she is only a baby and there is no one to care for her, they quickly adopt her. This creates all sorts of problems as she is highly sought after as proof of

A bit dated now, but still as good as I remember reading as a kid. ^_^

This was a very interesting book and a very different feel from Dragonriders of Pern. The plot was very creative and unique, and I fell in love with the characters. My only critique is that there was not a lot of depth - in the characters and in the story. It was a light, exciting read, but it didnt draw me in as some other stories do. I would still like to read more about Acornas adventures.
