A review by cieralegue
The Black Unicorn by Terry Brooks

2.0

i would give it 2.5 stars, as a sequel it really did not do much justice to the first book at all, i dont know where ben's lawyer SMART brain went but it clearly got up and walked off for the majority of the damn book. every fairy creature kept telling him the same bloody thing and does he listen nope he whines. questor, abernathy and the kobolds, i am excusing willow because she was scared and probably in shock with everything that has been happening to her, but the others were friends and staff of his not to mention they know his mannerisms and how hard he works, so why the hell do they not recognize that the bloody king is not their friend ben holiday till pretty much the very end when their was more than one moment in the book they could have easily figured it out and came close but than it went right back in circles. In my notes where i was gathering questions i had and important facts i made a note frequently about how idiotic ben, questor, and a bit of abernathy. this book took me pretty much a month because it didnt motivate me to read it as it honestly pissed me off a lot. i believe this book could have been done a lot better or maybe kept more in line with how the first book was written.
