The Last Unicorn

Praise for Peter S. Beagle and The Last Unicorn

Comes alive and stays alive on bright intensity of imagination. The New York Times Book Review

Peter S. Beagle is (in no particular order) a wonderful writer, a fine human being, and a bandit prince out to steal readers hearts. Tad Williams
 
Beagle illuminates with his own particular magic. Ursula K. LeGuin
 
Almost as if it were the last fairy tale, come out of lonely hiding in the forests of childhood, The Last Unicorn is as full of enchantment as any of the favorite tales readers may choose to recall...A delicate, sensitive, yet powerful rendering of all the intangibles that make a fairy tale unforgettable. St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Beagle...has been compared, not unreasonably, with Lewis Carroll and J.R.R. Tolkien, but he stands squarely and triumphantly on his own feet...The book is rich, not only in comic bits but also in passages of uncommon beauty. Beagle is a true magician with words, a master of prose and a deft practitioner in verse. The Saturday Review
