I have read one other book by Laura Hesse. I really enjoyed One Frosty Christmas when I read it back in 2017. So I was pleased to find another of Laura’s horse (unicorn) books free to download on Amazon recently. It is titled The Unicorn King.
The Unicorn King is the third book in the Unicorn Daze series. This book has a very different feel to One Frosty Christmas.
A lot of the story is dialogue between Jessie and her unicorn friend Gus. It is clear who is talking and easily set out to read out loud in parts as suggested in the ‘note to reader’ at the start of the novel.
Jessie and Gus go on an extraordinary adventure. And yet it seems that just as this short story ends, it has only really just begun. I guess this sets things up well for the next book!
This fantasy novel features a young girl, a beautiful unicorn prince, an amusing talking gull and one determined nasty shark! An unusual and interesting read.
The Unicorn King by Laura Hesse
As The Unicorn King is the third book in this series, I would be curious to read the first two. It definitely feels that this book is setting things up for Jessie and Gus to go on some incredible adventures together. For those who love a unicorn series, it may be worth checking out Laura Hesse’s Unicorn Daze series for young horse fans.
