Lost on the labyrinth of a Paleolithic cavern complex, Indy Jones encounters references to a mythological beast that may have existed twenty-thousand years ago--and five years later Dr. Jones confronts the legend again, and the woman who is hoping to find the fabled unicorn's horn. But so is someone else from Indy's past, a man who will stop at nothing to obtain the ancient relic. Some say the unicorn's horn came from an animal made extinct by the Great Flood. Others say the horn is an effective antidote to poison and a mystical relic. Indy discovers that the horn's power is less than benevolent, and the same could be said about the intentions of a certain beautiful art historian.

This book could have been good, but...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Indiana Jones and the Unicorn's Legacy (Paperback)
Well once again Rob MacGregor messes up the Indy storyline. The whole spirt quest dream thing was too outlandish. Now I know Indy runs into stuff that is off the wall, but Rob takes it WAY TOO FAR. For example the portal is so freakin crazy cause of the way the next book is written.(they are conected) This book could have been great but Rob put in too many outlandish ideas. It would have been fine if he had just included the alicorn.(Most Indy movies only have one item that is mythological)Like I said before if he just included the alicorn and that was it, he would have been fine. Too bad.

Excellant!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Indiana Jones and the Unicorn's Legacy (Paperback)
This book really feels like the movies.Nonstop action and mystery are some of the very well written highlights.Some books seem really good from the synopsis on the back cover,but the inside's only half as good.Not this book,it's good the whole way through(and it kind of reminds me of Alfred Hichcock's movie "Vertigo" because of the way the main female character tuns out to be evil and gets her comuppatence)But since it's so engrossing,I would recommend reading this book on the plane to China,or a long bus trip,because once you get into it,you won't want to get out!

Not much of a legacy,
By Inspector Gadget "Go Go Gadget Reviews" (On the trail of Doctor Claw) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Indiana Jones and the Unicorn's Legacy (Paperback)
What a slow, dull, plodding book!
For what it's worth, and that ain't much, the story concerns Indy's adventures in the American deserts, bookended by French mountains and Italian streets, as he hunts down a Unicorn horn that has magical powers. Yes, they really have sunk THAT low when trying to think of enchanting MacGuffins for our hero to go after. There are double crosses, and some extremely unexciting 'action' scenes, and a whole load of nothing else. I often think that Rob MacGregor's Indy stories have about 10 pages worth of mileage that he e-x-p-a-n-d-s to 300 or so with lots of filler and padded dialogue. It's such an infuriatingly boring read. The high-flying escapades we're used to seeing in the movies is a million miles from this cure for insomnia. For absolute hardcore Indy fans only, and even they won't enjoy it.
