Search - Acorna: The Unicorn Girl (Acorna Bk 1)

This was a good book introducing me to the character Acorna. I liked how Calum, Gill and Rafik learned about her powers and how Acorna and her friends made a difference on Kezdet. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Acorna's Quest.

A young unicorn-like human infant is discovered in a survival pod by three independent space miners. Anna Fields, as always, vividly portrays a wide range of characters with great facility. Their distinct personalities are clearly reflected in their speech patterns and inflections. Fields conveys the strong emotion that runs through the book. The deeper modulations are a little murky at times, but Fields's clear articulation still comes through. A sequel, ACORNA'S QUEST, continues the story.

Book Description
Three space miners, Gill, Calum, and Rafik, find a survival pod drifting in space: inside sleeps Acorna, a furry, unicorn-like humanoid infant. Young Acorna soon manifests special powers such as the ability to purify water and air, to make plants grow and to heal injuries. When Acorna is almost snatched by scientists who want to study her as an anomaly, the miners must flee and whisk Acorna away to the planet Kezdet, a planet known to deal in child slave labor, and the last place they wanted to go.

Loved it! Adventure, intelligent, human.

I read the first 5 books of this series. I couldn't complete the series. They are saccharine sweet. I love Anne McCaffrey, but these are not her best work....not by a long shot.

FIRST BOOK IN THIS SERIES; VERY ENJOYABLE- MADE ME LOOK FOR MORE ABOUT HER
