Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great read as usual from the author
The Acorna books are amazing. They are unregrettable and very deep. It takes you away to another time and place, and lets you see the world through a very different (make-believe) culture.
I hope Anne keeps putting out new books to amaze her audiences.
Rating: - Doona
This book is great! First I have read of the Doona books, the puns that pop up through the book are hysterical. A great commentary on government!
Rating:  - Let it die already
While I loved the first Acorna books, and fell in love with the sweet little unicorn girl, I quickly changed my mind after this book. The plot was alright, but it seemed to me that McCaffery was rushing through this. She didn't take the time to develop the setting, plot of chars as she should have. She left the ending ambiguous, and tortured a poor creature who had already been tortured enough. Either she needs to spend a lot more time on her writing, or she needs to leave this series alone.

This book is my favorite in the Unicorn girl series. I was brought to tears at some points. This is truley A.M's work at it's best! Two thumbs way up!!!!!
Rating:  - wish there was 0 star mark
Disgustingly silly. Seems that her books are getting more and more ridicilous. Book is full of complete nonsense, characters are [unrealistic],the whole thing is extremely childish. Of course, you'll have a holywood style happy ending. Blech.
And she should definitely go back to school to learn some physics and might want to use common sense. Aerosol torpedoes in space?
