Welcome to the Guestbook!
I’m always eager to read your comments about my books and stories, so please feel free to pitch in. Here are a few things for you to know:
1) I answer the messages here personally.
2) No message shows up here until I actually answer it to prevent spam and other inappropriate postings. So there will sometimes be a delay before your message posts, especially if I am traveling.
3) Teachers, a gentle request: Please do not have multiple children send me variants of the same message. A group email is much easier to respond to and not such a drain on my time. My thanks in advance for being alert to this.

Hello Mr. Coville! My boyfriend and I are both huge fans of you. When I was little, my dad read the first two books of the unicorn chronicles to me. I loved them so much and they made such an impact that even now, as I have just turned 25, I still love them! I just recently re-read the first two and read the third and fourth for the first time. The fourth was a bit hard to find. It took myself and three of my friends (who are also big fans of the books) a month or so, but we finally ended up tracking it down in a library. I was so riveted and pulled in to the story that I spent practically two whole days not being able to put it down!!! I loved it but there are many questions left unanswered. Are there any plans of continuing the series? Or is that the last of it?

Hi, Rashell -
It delights me more than I can say that your love for the Unicorn Chronicles has not diminished. I'm terribly sorry that you had such a hard time finding the fourth book. Scholastic let it go out of print, and never did a paperback edition, something I am, to be honest, fairly bitter about. Not just for my sake. It is so unfair to the readers to not have the last book available!
I would love to do more books in the series, but Scholastic doesn't seem to be interested. Alas.
Writing the fourth book was really challenging, the hardest writing task of my career. So it means a great deal to me that you were riveted by it!
Thanks for this lovely message.
