Not a very thinly veilled message about AIDS, this book was written in 1988, when AIDS was mostly a "Gay problem" but it deals with a farmer who finds unicorns on her ranch, and they're dying. At about that time, she takes in a man dying of AIDS, and they work together to save the unicorns before the guy dies.
Decent characters, just a little too preachy for me. There's a lot of indian mysticism, too. This is not a book for kids, although only the language gets raunchy. Themes are a little too adult for young teens.

Interesting story--wonder if there are unicorns somewhere.... ??? : )

I read this book at a young and impressionable age when it was first published in paperback. It was part of a new fantasy & sci-fi genre that Bantam was highlighting. It really delved into some unique and intriguing ideas that were not usually found in this type of literature. A must read for any fan of unicorns or those who like to read offbeat fiction that challenges the norm.

This was a very moving book about unicorns, AIDS, and learning new things about oneself and others. I liked how Libby, Bo and Sam gradually got to know each other better over time.
