The Unicorn Hunter (Book 2)

Che Golden's second volume sends its young protagonist back into a world where the old folklore still has teeth. Written for middle-grade and younger teenage readers, the book builds on the events of the opening instalment with higher stakes, darker opponents and a continuing struggle between forces of light and shadow. The pacing favours short chapters and frequent turns, and the world-building carries forward without stopping for long explanations, so the story keeps moving for readers who already know the setting. Series notes: • Continues the story begun in the first volume of the sequence • Fast-moving fantasy adventure pitched at younger readers • Magic, quests and an escalating threat driving the plot • Reads best after the opening book rather than on its own A fit for young fantasy readers, school libraries and families reading a series together.
