    An imaginative and clever sword fight about love and honor that is engaging and full of rich fantasy. Well done.

    This is a delightfully dark play that I'd love to see on stage. It's thrilling to experience love, war, honor, and pride distilled through just three characters. While the play is small, the themes resonate in a big way. And who doesn't like unicorns, the ultimate mythical figure?

    This witty and surprisingly suspenseful fantasy is full of clever reveals and reversals. The "not who he seems" game has rarely been played with such lyricism and impact.
