About this ebook

Chauncey has searched and searched but he hasn't seen another unicorn in an elf's age. He’s trying to find his mate, Shastra, and has not been successful. So he returns to the meadow in which he first met her. The meadow is now a park in a bustling community. Shastra isn't there but Chauncey meets LacCluster Minifrey. Lac is fifteen and has been in Barry Ding's Magical Academy for three years. He has innate magical ability and school would of course one it and give him the learning he needs to control the magic and pass the certification exam. Lac wants to accompany Chauncey as he feels he can gain more knowledge of magic. Chauncey decides to allow Lac to journey with him in the wilderness. A wilderness which contains many magical creatures, such as trolls, hobgoblins, and a at least one huge and hungry dragon. A dragon who above all loves to ingest beings with innate magic. What Chauncey doesn’t know is that Lac is terrible at controlling his magic. He hasn't to date passed one test...and if he fails in the wilderness he may be the last person to see the last and almost unicorn in this quirky but sweet novella.

Author

Peter Butterworth

aloha, I was born in Providence, Rhode Island but began a life of many moves soon thereafter (3 high schools, 2 junior high schools...even 2 kindergardens). I kept moving in a westerly direction until I reached Hawaii. If I moved any further west it'd be east so I returned to California (& gave up a Hemenway scholarship from UH). Spent too much time in competitive athletic endeavors (I was told I was the only history major at La Crosse State U. I was there to play baseball at a very good phy-ed school). Yes, history was my major but you can do only 2 things with a history degree: teach or write. I wasn't ready to do either so I ended up as a pysch nurse (after doing this and that). My motto: Life is serious but...you cannot take it seriously. I've always been interested in people and the human condition and I have the gift of wonder (ex. if wisdom is important why does our culture - and others - ignore it and not esteem it? Our educational system doesn't even teach it in philosophy classes ['No more Kant and the color red already!]). Hence (or is it ergo?), I've matured enough to devote myself to the scribbling craft. Mahalo, Peter
