Rendition During 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. . .

Comment On Out Of 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

This is an excellent example of why you should never judge a book by its cover. Like most female authors, the cover is soft and suggests something akin to a fantasy romance novel. Nothing could be further from the truth. This book has space travel, alien unicorns and a protagonist who is more interested in saving enslaved children than romance. The writing was disjointed and repetitive at times, but the story itself was unpredictable in the best way and quite entertaining.

I read this book years ago and I still remember the wind blowing against my head from the open school bus window as I thought about how it would feel to have a horn there or what it would be like to have silky pony hair legs... I've never quit thinking about this book from time to time. Maybe its time I re-read it and move on to the rest of the "Acorna" books?

This is a re-read of a series I first picked up in my early teens and have re-read a couple of times since. Acorna is the first book in that series. I would describe the series as a sci-fi/fantasy mash-up; it has space travel, futuristic technology, and aliens, but it also has a unicorn girl with magical healing powers who is hailed as various goddesses incarnate and saves enslaved children from evil slavers. Is it any good? Well, lets just say I enjoyed bits of it more than other parts.The

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

Recently I watched a review for The Last Unicorn, it was based on a book, however when I went looking for the book I couldnt find it. I found this book however. Having read all of the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey I decided to give this series a try.This was an enjoyable book. It seemed to lack somewhat in characterization and plot. My memories of Dragonriders are a little fuzzy as it was several years ago I read them, but it seems they were much better written. These books boil

Surprisingly dark for what I thought would be a fun sci-fi romp featuring a unicorn girl. The writing was simplistic and uneven, and couldn't pull off what it attempted. The plot had little direction and didn't manage to create any tension.
