The Black Unicorn by Terry Brooks
3.0
3.5
While enjoyable, this lost the magic of the first. Plot seemed a bit too ridiculous, especially with how smart/quick the main character was in the first book. Seemed almost like two different characters. He should have realized things much sooner.
The unicorn plot seemed eerily similar to The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle and typical of Brooks, the ending felt rushed.
I did enjoy the new character called the Prism Cat. He was clearly inspired by the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland but still enjoyable. I found myself more interested in his character than the rest of them.
