About this listen

Mark Sandoval - resolutely arrogant, covered head to foot in precise geometric scarring, and still marginally famous after Hollywood made an Oscar-winner based off his memoir years before - has been strongly advised by his lawyer to leave the country following a drunken and potentially fatal hit and run. When a woman sends Sandoval grainy footage of what appears to be a unicorn, he quickly hires an assistant and the two head off to the woman's farm in Hvildarland, a tiny, remote island off the coast of Iceland. When they arrive on the island and discover that both a military base and the surrounding álagablettur, the nearby woods, are teeming with strangeness and secrets, they begin to realize that a supposed unicorn sighting is the least of their worries.

I'm not sure about the choice of a Russian accent to stand in for Icelandic! but that aside the narrator did a great job with a wonderful, many layered and at times, difficult story - it gets quite brutal in places. One aspect of the story I guessed, but many I did not, and I was highly delighted that the ending wasn't one of those 'and it was all a dream' types, which I feared once a certain plot point was introduced. I would LOVE to see this made into a film!
