Silvranja of the Silver Forest

After her mate is killed by an evil that is relentlessly driving unicorns to extinction, Argent takes her foal Silvranja to a huge cavern full of their ancestors’ bones. There Silvranja is cared for by the Piksenvolk, a race of small people who live in Piksenville under Geheimberg (the Secret Mountain) while Argent goes in search of the legendary Albishadewe to take the place of her murdered mate. But the evil that killed Quicksilver succeeds in killing her too. Silvranja, fearing she is the last of her species, soon learns that other species, even humans, are threatened with extinction. To restore the balance of nature she must leave the safety of her secret hiding place to find Albishadewe and help the humans in a fight for the survival of the land. In doing so she is forced to learn what it’s like to be human and nearly loses her life and that of her unborn foal.

Shortlisted for the Tom Fitzgibbon Memorial Award in 1998 (when Vince Ford's comedy 2MUCH4U was the winner).
