Description
Tanaquil, the seemingly ordinary daughter of a sorceress, stumbles upon a mysterious cache of bones in the desert—and when she assembles them, a black unicorn rises from the impossible, alive and commanding. Drawn by a force she can’t resist, she follows the creature beyond the boundaries of her world, where wonder curdles into danger and every step demands courage, choice, and sacrifice. Blending fairy-tale enchantment with unsettling alternate-world peril, the story explores themes of transformation, the cost of desire, and the thin line between magic and obsession. With Tanith Lee’s signature lyrical, darkly romantic style, this first installment of a unicorn trilogy turns a simple act of creation into a sweeping journey through identity, power, and the worlds we’re willing to enter for love and meaning.
