This book reads like a field book where you get to learn more about The Dark Heart Unicorns, a misunderstood type of unicorns that are finally presented in a positive light.

The artwork is stunning and it's part of a very complex magical world that can keep a child captivated for some time. I think it's a great book and a great addition to a child's library.

ARC Copy...Other then that was alot more wordier then I expected a "magical field guide" picture book to be but interesting see misunderstood "dark coated" unicorns in a positive light. Feel this will get added to Unicorn libraries.

If you like Unicorns then this is a book for you. The book tells the history of a group of unicorns called Dark Hearts. It goes over the members of the group, their powers, and characteristics. For some extra fun the book is written like a field guide of someone who is studying this newly discovered unicron group.

The illustrations in this book are beautiful. For Fans of "The Magical Unicorn Society", this is a perfect addition to the collection. I will definitely be buying it for my library as my students will be excited to read this. I loved the stories/fables in shared in it. It is perfect for the lovers of unicorns as it gives us a new look into a different types of unicorns. I enjoyed the short stories throughout the book along with the illustrations we have come to expect from The Magical Unicorn Society!

This beautiful book is written like a field guide on the Dark Hearts Unicorns. The imagery and layout are aesthetically pleasing and will delight unicorn lovers everywhere. The book also offers small details on other creatures, such as fairies and dragons.

"A brand-new compendium from the Magical Unicorn Society, exploring the shadowy and mysterious world of the Dark Hearts.

The Magical Unicorn Society is opening its doors once again to reveal an exciting and previously undiscovered family of unicorns called the Dark Hearts.

Long ago, there was a conflict among the unicorn families and a ninth blessing was banished from our world to a dark and dreadful place called the Shadow Realm. Here, they were forced to live in exile with terrifying beasts, but worst of all, the creator of these malevolent creatures, the Demon King himself. Previously undiscovered and misunderstood, it is now time to explore the truth about the Dark Hearts.

This beautifully illustrated compendium brings together the untold stories of their creation and banishment, as well as special encounters with the Dark Hearts from all over the world. The book culminates in an epic battle between the nine unicorn families and the dark forces of the Shadow Realm in an effort to protect all life on Earth.

Featuring fact files which examine the unique features and special powers of the Dark Hearts, as well as tips for how to spot them in the wild, this compendium presents everything readers need to know about these beautiful and elusive creatures."

Because of course there are dark unicorns!

So, the appeal of this book is definitely the artwork. It's worth buying for that alone. The story is just a bunch of "field reports," which are short and only loosely tied together. There's no real resolution to the overall plot arc, and characters are introduced somewhat randomly.

This book is so cool omgggggg!
I rated this book 4 stars. It's really good and I recommend everyone to read this book as fast as they can because it's really good and the characters are fantastic.

I was super pleased to be given the chance to review another book from the Magical Unicorn Society Series, and this one is just as good, if not better than the previous. This volume follows the rediscovery of a lost blessing of unicorns known as Dark Hearts, who have dark manes and onyx horns and were specifically created to help defeat dark magic and the Demon King.

I think framing this as a rediscovery thanks to archeological finds is a really fun way to get kids interested in the uncovering of history and culture. Trust and believe, if I found evidence of unicorns on an archaeological expedition, my bucket list would be complete.

The Dark Heart unicorns being a specific blessing created by the Gold and Silver unicorns to defeat evil, but then being shunned as too wild or dangerous, gives us the chance to root for these creatures in a way not many historical field guides do. Between Broken Horn and Blue Lagoon and the others learning to harness their powers or make nice with the eight other blessings, all the way to gaining control of their magic and summoning the other blessings to aid them in their final battle against the demon king, each of the eight Dark Heart unicorns gets a chance to shine in small accounts from human witnesses.

I especially loved the aspect of the Dark Hearts having onyx horns, as the text itself notes that onyx is a symbol of strength and perseverance.

What a wonderful continuation of this children's series, I look forward to more in the future.

This was a wonderfully done handbook in this universe, it had everything that I would have enjoyed about this type of series. I thought it was a great introduction to the world and the creatures in this. I enjoyed the way the authors wrote this and left me wanting to read the official series.
