Book Overview
Volume Two of the Firebringer Trilogy He was the youngest prince the unicorns had ever known- Aljan son-of-Korr, Dark Moon. A silver crescent on his brow and a white star on his heel were tokens that one day he was destined to become the legendary Firebringer-but Jan had no knowledge of fire, nor of where to find it. Swept out to sea while defending the unicorns, Jan is washed up on a distant shore, only to find himself the revered captive of a strange race of two-foots who treat him with awe, even as they hold him against his will. It is here that he witnesses the magic of fire for the first time and, even more importantly, discovers how he himself can create it. But can he escape and bring the knowledge back to the unicorns in time to same them? "Carefully plotted, with satisfying action and fully developed, intriguing characters, this is sure to please fantasy lovers."- Booklist

Baah! Stupid Kurkus Reviews!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
At a time when fantasy books are becoming popular once more, many of them badly written at that, you would think a lyrical story about unicorns, true love and prophecy would be a best seller. Wrong. This book isn't even in print anymore, sadly, although it deserves to be. If you've never danced at moonrise upon a summer shore with your true love, or ran the plains with the free people, then you don't know what you're missing-yet. Though extremely hard to find, they are worth every effort in a world filled with Harry Potters and Dragonlance. Once you fight a wyvern, or dare imaging taking one simple sup of the dragon queen's waking dreams, then you too will know what we are talking about. And you'll never be able to go back again. Skywater, Vice-President of the Firebringer Fan Club.
The Best Books of all time!

Sigh.........Kirkus Reviews has it all wrong. The books are the most intrancing, beautiful tales of magic, adventure and romance that I have ever read. Find the books, its worth the effort and enjoy, because mere words cannot describe "The Lay of Jan".
My Favorite Books!

I loved this book as well as the other 2 in this trilogy! They are the best books that have ever tried to portray unicrons. They have their own land and culture and it magically all comes together as Jan starts on the path of finding his destiny as the Firebringer!
Amazing

I loved this book almost as much as "The Birth of the Firebringer". This novel weaves fantasy and real-life situations in together to create a believable civilization of unicorns and a compelling hero. Our society could learn greatly from the lessons Jan learns under the guidance of his goddess. I would actually rate this book a 9 and a half. This is a worthy sequel. If you are searching, the third book in this trilogy is called "The Son of Summer Stars".
This book is worth the touble to find it.

It took me two years to find this book after I read the first one, "Birth of the Firebringer - Vol. 1 of the Firebringer Triology". This story is one that I will save to tell my nieces and nephews when they are older, because it is very entertaining and an easy read, like a bed-time story. The authour makes you almost cheer the lead character, Jan, on. Who wouldn't want to read a story that not only includes unicorns, but these unicorns talk. Children will find this continuation of a beautiful story, equally treasuring.
