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.Also available in the series:The Magical Unicorn Society: Unicorns, Myths and Monsters 9781789293494The Magical Unicorn Society: Baby Unicorns 9781789294811
