Plot Summary of Indiana Jones and the Unicorn's Legacy
"Several years ago, Indiana Jones found clues to the existence of a mythological beast that may have actually existed thousands of years ago. Setting out on an expedition to recover the fabled Unicorn's horn, the archeologist learns that the genuine reason behind this trek is to bring an alicorn to a sinister organization that plans to use its magical powers for world domination. Their plan backfires, when the artifact is used erroneously. In the process one of their supporters, a pretty historian who helped lure Indy into their trap, fatally dies and a portal is accidentally opened. The story is then continued in the succeeding book of the series entitled “The Interior World”."
Lovely Wolff, Resident Scholar
