Description
"Good spacefaring fun" as the Unicorn Girl returns in her fourth adventure from the New York Times–bestselling authors of Acorna's People (Publishers Weekly).
Acorna, the "unicorn girl" has made peace with her Linyaari past, and aboard the interplanetary salvage vessel Condor she is finally free. But dread overtakes her when a distress signal summons Acorna and her companions to a nearby planet. For among the myriad wonders of this world of sentient plants and intoxicating perfumes are unmistakable signs that everything Acorna holds dear is in peril. A promise of world-shattering devastation is in the celestial winds—and impending catastrophe at the claws of the cold-blooded insectile race that seeks to eradicate all Linyaari and human life from the galaxy . . . the Khleevi!
Praise for the Acorna series
"McCaffrey and Ball have created a magical alien in this fantasy/science fiction story." —Library Journal
"Combining colorful characterizations, lots of fast-paced action, and a decided sense of menace . . . this is entertaining fare, indeed, for sf fans." —Booklist
