    About this audiobook

    In the center of Luster towers an enormous tree that is the Heart of the World. Now the tree is wounded, pierced by a tunnel that connects it to Earth. Through that tunnel strides Beloved, the ancient enemy of the unicorns, followed by an army of Hunters eager to destroy every last unicorn.

    At the center of this great struggle is the human girl, Cara Diana Hunter, who sets out with her friend, the gryphon Medafil, to ask a dragon to aid the unicorns. As she travels, Cara meets not only the dragon but a mysterious stranger who may hold the key to Luster's secrets.

    As the threads of destiny weave about her, Cara will discover at last the truth about the unicorns - a truth that brings hard choices for everyone she loves as this magnificent, multistranded saga thunders to its astonishing conclusion.

      This... was too much crammed into a series finale yet did not follow viewpoints which had hooked me earlier. But series are hard - still appreciative of the lend of this limited-print adventure.
    • 5/5
      This book my teacher didn't read and I think the whole class put the book on hold! You should have seen the waiting list. We all loved it and couldn't wait to read the last book. I wasn't even sure I wanted it to end...
    • 5/5
      Finally, there is closure! I waited 16 years for this book, between the time I read [Into the Land of the Unicorns] in 1994 and this final book in 2010. And four years later, when dealing with the grief that always comes at the end of a series (a different series) I decided to revisit this old favorite.[[Bruce Coville]] takes this story in directions that I never world have expected, from the creation of the unicorns and Luster, to the philosophical notions of love, death, duty, friendship, parenthood, etc. You might hear this is a story about unicorns and dismiss it as a simple children's book, but I promise you it is so much more.The final pursuit of the death of all unicorns by Beloved is at hand and only the combined will of all the people of Luster and friends of the unicorns can prevent the terrible plans that Beloved has spent centuries bringing to fruition.
    • 5/5
      My 7 yr old LOVES this series. She got this last book for Christmas 2010 and we've re-read the whole series 3 times.
