Dark Whispers : ウィキペディア英語版
The Unicorn Chronicles

The Unicorn Chronicles consists of four young adult fantasy novels by Bruce Coville about the fantasy world of Luster that lies parallel to our own. Within this realm exist all sorts of fantastical and mythological beasts, from the familiar unicorn to the strange, squirrel-like creature known as the Squijum. Cara Hunter is sent to Luster via a magical amulet, given to her by her grandmother, Ivy Morris. She is asked to tell the Queen of the Unicorns that "The Wanderer is weary," and must set out in search of the Queen. Along her travels, she befriends the world's inhabitants, such as Lightfoot, a young unicorn prince, M'Gama, a Geomancer who draws magical power from the earth, and the Dimblethum, a bearlike creature, among many others.
==Novels==
The first book, ''Into the Land of the Unicorns'', introduces Cara as the main character. Ivy sends Cara into the parallel universe 'Luster', where she must find the unicorns' Queen, Arabella Skydancer, and give her a message sent by Ivy.
The second book, ''Song of the Wanderer'', is about Cara's return to Earth to fetch her grandmother; however, while searching for Ivy, she encounters Beloved, a diabolical ancestress of hers, who is determined to enter Luster and destroy the unicorns.
The third book, ''Dark Whispers'', follows both Cara and her father as they embark on separate missions. Cara is on the hunt to uncover a story removed from the Chronicles, one that has the potential to shed light on the enmity between the unicorns and the vicious race of creatures known as the delvers. Meanwhile, Ian Hunter, Cara's father, seeks a way into the Rainbow Prison in order to free his wife.
The fourth and final installation in the Unicorn Chronicles series, ''The Last Hunt'', opens on Luster's hour of need. Beloved's plans to destroy Luster are coming to fruition, and it will require Cara, her family, her friends, and Luster's inhabitants themselves, to stop the threat.
There are also a few short stories set in the world of the Unicorn Chronicles. One is told from the perspective of Cara's grandmother during her childhood in Coville's anthology, ''A Glory of Unicorns''. Also available are ''The Boy With Silver Eyes'', following the story of Nils, whose father was a Hunter and who forced Nils to do something terrible that changed his life thereafter, and ''Guardian of Memory'', in which Grimwold, keeper of the Unicorn Chronicles, is summoned to tell an important tale as part of a ceremony that occurs once every 25 years. It is the story of Alma Leonetti, and her quest to discover why something sweet and precious has disappeared from old Earth.
