The Last Unicorn

A children's book, however well it is written.

After hearing he might be the last of his kind, an immortal unicorn decides to look for the other members of his species, only to find out that the world has changed since last he left his groove. People no longer believe in magic, making him look like a regular horse in their eyes and significantly hindering his quest.

This is told in the first few pages, and I was liking it enough. This story about the lost of magic in the world, making magical things look like common ones, and only a few who could see them for what they truly are.

Then a wizard is introduced in the story. He is really a magician, a common men that can perform basic illusions, party tricks, but sometimes his magic is real. Again the thing about the lost of magic in the world.

However, as soon as he is captured by a pirate, the “children story” comes into play really strong, and I lost interest.
