The appearance of unicorns on a Colorado cattle ranch joins a dying man, the ranch owner, and a Ute man and his daughter in a test of courage and humanity
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
When Bo Gavin returns to his cousin Libby's Colorado ranch to die, he joins a self-exiled Ute Indian and his estranged daughter in a desperate quest to save a herd of dying unicorns, visitors from another, magical world. Bishop's ( The Secret Ascension ) gift for thought-provoking speculative fiction infuses this quasi-fantasy with a serious focus. Recommended. JC
