Shadow of the Unicorn: The Legacy was a fun, MG tale about a land with unicorns and dinosaurs. This cleverly crafted story brought to mind The Enormous Egg, by Oliver Butterworth, and the Land Before Time movies.I loved the interaction between the young unicorns, Azaria and Gaelan, and their dinosaur friend, Darius. The friendships shown were so realistic and fun to see playing out on the page.Through her characters Ms. de Montigny teaches us many lessons. One that stuck with me was how when mistakes are made that result in high penalties, trust isn't easily given, but redemption can still be found.Azaria truly grows throughout this book, and I can't wait to see what's in store for Darius in the future.
