"Dubh is a writer of great imagination." (Kirkus Reviews)

"The book's intense world-building is worth the price of admission." (Kirkus Reviews)

"A sprawling, linguistically playful dystopian novel." (Kirkus Reviews)

The earth has been shriveling and dying for thousands of years, and unless Ròna and the Children of the Mother can put a stop to the plundering by the PieceTakers of the Monstrato Corps, the Wayp -- the last refuge of life on earth -- will be lost as well.

In the aftermath of The Great Melt, what is left of the natural environment stands on the brink of extinction. Yet, amidst the desolation, the Wayp remains a lone refuge far above the burnt-lands of the DownBlow: a green haven protected by Ròna, the guardian of the forest, and "sister" of the Mother. A hard enough duty during the best of times, but now on a planet long ago devastated by global warming and environmental degradation, her mission is more critical than ever as she faces the most recent onslaught from the ruthless Monstrato Corps.

Ròna, the red-haired, speckle-cheeked heroine of this history of the future, forms an unbreakable bond with Cuilean, her childhood friend turned gladiator in the arenas of the DownBlow. They've known each other since they were children - and throughout that time, they've been friends, then enemies, and then lost to each other, but as they've grown older, their love for each other has grown against a backdrop of dangerous adventures and perilous escapades, revealing the resilience of their love and passion even in the face of overwhelming adversity.

Ride with Ròna on her enchanting unihorn mount; shudder to the horrific roar of saber-tooth tiger; face off with Cuilean against the charging bull-monster known as the mìneotarbh; and join them both in the struggle to save what little remains of a living world after the Great Melt brought about the collapse of the planet's environment thousands of years before;
An epic science fiction fantasy adventure retrieved from the mists of time yet to come. A tale as enchanting as it is foreboding. Immerse yourself this story that transcends fiction, shedding light on the shadows of our future. The Girl who Rode the Unihorn is not just a novel; it's a prophecy unraveling before your eyes. Set in a world yet to come, the world we know having been devastated by the consequences of our own actions today, this is adrenaline-pumping adventure and a passionate romance against all odds, all while offering an unsettling glimpse into what awaits humanity in the not too-distant future.

The Girl who Rode the Unihorn is a coming-of-age story and a love story and an adventure story unlike any other. It's the history of our Mother Earth's future. It's a chilling prophecy based on the trajectory that our planet is on towards environmental catastrophe. A warning and a call to action that is rooted in real events unfolding in our time, every page takes us a step closer to unveiling the mysteries of a future yet to unfold. A research-authenticated vision of the future catastrophe fated to befall our Mother Earth unless we take action to save her, this novel compels us to reflect on our current choices and the havoc they are fated to wreak, presenting a gripping and thought-provoking history that documents our last, best chance to save life on the planet earth.
