5.0 out of 5 stars Beagle's best work of literature, November 10, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Fantasy Worlds of Peter Beagle (Hardcover)

This book is absolutely my favorite. In it, you find "The Last Unicorn", "A Fine and Private Place", "Come, Lady Death", and "Lila the Werewolf", all excellent. If you have seen the movie, "The Last Unicorn," READ the book! It is a thousand times better. It is more than just a children's book...it is a frightening and powerful novel. "Come, Lady Death," is a fantastic view of death, and "A Fine and Private Place," is a shocking story of a man secluded from the world who finds delight in the dead. "The Fantasy Worlds of Peter Beagle" combine Beagle's lively imagination and quick wit to produce a must read work of art.

This review is from: The Fantasy Worlds of Peter Beagle (Hardcover)

I have the original 1978 version and read it back then. I love all the stories, especially Lila the W. Am still waiting for the movie (I think he wanted it to come out as a movie). What an imagination Beagle has and such a gifted writer.
