5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book!, April 24, 2000

By A Customer

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.
