The fate of a magical world rests on the shoulders of a thirteen-year-old girl in Suzanne Robinson's enchanting young adult novel, Unifree. Long ago the land of Unifree was a peaceful kingdom. That is, until the Great War came-an epic battle between the unicorn Queen Ventra and the dark army, led by the evil troll Drex. But the war came to an end when Ventra sacrificed herself to create a powerful magical barrier to separate the land of Unifree from its attackers. Unifree was now divided-but safe. But when Drex discovers a way to break through to Unifree, he kidnaps the king's daughters-who just so happen to hold the power of the magical barrier. The king then sends Apollo, the captain of the Unicorn Guard, on a mission to the real world to bring back the one human who can help defeat Drex-a young girl named Annie. Together Annie and Apollo embark on a journey of danger, adventure, and incredible magic to gather the ingredients and spells needed to break through the barrier and defeat Drex once and for all. Will Annie be able to rescue her newfound friends? Or is Unifree destined to fall?
