Mary Stanton has again captured my heart with the 6th in the series of the unicorns of Balinor. With my love of unicorns and her wonderfull writing It is no wonder this book was wonderfull. Every chapter was a cliff hanger. I read alot and this was just enough to make me hold my breathe waiting for the next one! This book is a must read!

Unicorns of Balinor: Secrets of the Scepter, is a great book. I like it because of the suspense and the way the author describes almost every single detail. It's about how Arianna must learn how to use the Scepter's powers. In doing that, she must gather the three golden rings, not by finding them, but by earning them. Meanwhile, the Shifter is gathering his army and preparing to attack Balinor. Also, the Celestial Valley Unicorns are preparing to help the Royal Princess and her unicorn, Sunchaser in the battle against the Shifter. But there is a creature, The Shadow Rider, that the Shifter himself fears. He helped the Shifter plan the battle that captured Arianna's family. He's in on it too. In the end, she has all the rings and combines them with the Scepter. Now they're ready to fight.

This is the best book in the whole series. I absolutely love it. It feels like you are right alongside Sunchaser and Ari as they travel to find Atlanta.

Well written, entertaining fantasy series... Purchased it for my young 10 year old daughter who has a high school reading level. It is difficult to find books that engage her yet are age appropriate for her. This series of books fits the bill.
I read them as well and enjoyed them immensely. I was just going to scan them (always like to know what the daughter is being exposed to) but got pulled into the stories myself.
If you like fantasy literture and/or anything to do with unicorns I believe you'll like this series.

This has got to be the best book of the whole series. I love it! It shows inside strength and how hard it is to make real decisions.
