I got one of these books when they first came out and didn't like it. Read it a few years later and loved it. I could only find this one by the time I went looking for the others, but want ads eventually led me to them. The ending was great, Sheila really did have magic, letting her take it home with the possibility of going back one day was a good way to end the series. I wish they had written more!

I picked up the first three prolly 15 years ago at a church yard sale for 10cents each- I looked EVERYWHERE for the other 3- my friend recieved the fourth which she gave to me for my b-day one year, and I have been completely out of luck up until now- they are even hard to find on Amazon!! the first two books in the series are back by popular demand now available by dellrey I believe- new cover art they combined the first two books, so I can only assume that the others are on the way- keep harrassing them!!! I just had to by my fifth book on e-bay for over $30!!!! Worth every penny- I want the whole set for my little girl....

I too wish that this series would come back to the bookstores. I own four of the six books and cannot seem to get access to a resonably priced sixth book. I have been left hanging at the fifth book! I keep them because they are exciting and appeal to not just young girls but to anyone with an imagination. I cherish the books that I have because the idea of a young girl making such a huge impact on the lives of an entire country is what inspires me. I do not care if they are pricey collectors items I would just like to have a complete series for my daughter to read someday.

I'm launching a letter campaign to get these books back. It is ridiculous what people are spending for a book that should be available to young girls and old alike. Libraries can't keep these books in stock! If you want to help me this is what I'm doing: I will mail a letter a day to the Ballantine/Fawcet press asking that they publish The Secret of the Unicorn Queen Series. I will say that there is a genuine need for these books and that they will sell. In order to prove the high demand for these books it would be great to have other people send in letters too. Anyone who is interested can e-mail me (it's a hotmail account with my name) or just write and mail a letter. This shouldn't be a herculean labor, these books are marketable and will sell, the publisher can't go wrong. (I love the cover art too-Rowena is brilliant!)

This is one of the most brilliant and inspiring books ever,that can really capture your imagination and bring the story to life.
I thought it was a really unique idea but one that could just be crazy enough to happen so you don't think 'no way, that'd never happen!'when the story of how sheila fell through Dr.Reit's time machine and landed in a parallel world is relaid.
The characters are all really fascinating due to the fact they're all really tough warriors but are gentle people at heart.

I gaurentee by the end of this book you'll still be wanting more.

My friend purchaed this book for me one Christmas many years ago. I instantly feel in love with it and I craved more. Eventually I was able to read the entire series only because I kept harassing the store my friend purchased them in to stock them. Now all these years later I don't know where the books are and I miss the adventure badly. I'm suprised they are out of print, but I know I'll find them in a used book store some where. :o)

Could someone PLEASE explain to me why a series that isobviously so beloved has been allowed to go out of print? With thepopularity of science fiction/fantasy books growing (Harry Potter anyone?), you'd think that these books would be a mint. . . But that's beside the point. ...If you get a chance to read these books please do - they're wonderful (and obviously addictive! ) :)

Moonspell is the sixth and final book in The Secret Of The Unicorn Queen series, by four different authors. Shelia and the unicorn riders lead by Illyria, a mighty warrior women, must help safely escort the unicorns to Ryudain. Once there the unicorns will replenish the power that fills them, but can they make it safely there? And can Shelia get her tracker back from Mardock so she can make it home?

The entire series The Secret Of The Unicorn Queen is a magnificant set of books. Each one is a story all it's own that captures the attention of childen and adults alike. It doesn't matter if you are male or female you'll love these books, because they action packed with a twist of romance.
The only problem is finding them! Luckly for me I visited a local library, were I used to live, on the day they were selling off unread inventory. I was amazed to find that the books, which I had read from this library 7 years previously, were still in great condition and for sale. I baught all six books[.]...
I urge you to buy these books if you can! You won't regret it!
I'm happy now to announce that I have all six finally typed up and am more than happy to make them available to everyone else. ...

I found this book in my school libary and then later found the others at the town Libary. I have been looking for this book and the other 5 for 2 years the closest I came was ordering them from a used book store for $25 each. but luckly I found them here.
