Unico – Lost Reviewed by Luka, Age 13

In this graphic novel, a unicorn called Unico lands in Egypt where he is gradually lured to an ancient ruin with voices tempting him in. Suddenly, he encounters a living Sphinx and Marusu (the Sphinx`s daughter).

Meanwhile Zephyrus sends Chloe and Toast (Unico’s friends) to Starrow, a scientist. Starrow sends them on a mission to try and stop Iver and Strigaloth from hunting Unico. Chloe and Toast manage to but Unico comes across a mysterious group and gets captured, will he be able to escape?

I liked the idea of Chloe and Toast being able to time travel back and forth so that they could avoid the attacks from Iver. It was upsetting when Unico was separated from Marusu and the Sphinx as Unico was now alone as how he was before.

I also enjoyed the illustrations and designs of characters made by Gurihiru, the illustration team.

I think this book deserves an 8 out of 10 because it is very thrilling and so unpredictable but it could have been a bit more amusing to read. I would recommend this to anyone above 7 years old as there is no extreme violence and it is quite neutral and fun to read for most ages.
