I am surprised there are no discussions about Peter Beagle here. I am about to finish "The Last Unicorn" and I must say it is one of the most beautiful fantasy books I have read.
I have seen the movie when I was about 6 and seen it a couple of times... I watched it again as an adult and still loved it. Peter Beagle's work, though simple in prose is complex in content. It is hauntingly beautiful. I just love, love, love the book it is better than the movie... I wish I have read the book before seeing the animated movie.

The Last Unicorn is a very nice novel. I read it a couple of years ago, and hadn't even heard of the movie at that point, which worked in my favour, all things considered.
My favourite Beagle book, however, is Tamsin. For a guy of his age and generation, he does a remarkably good job at constructing a believable 13 year teenage character going through alienation doldrums.

After finishing The Last Unicorn, I am craving for more books by Beagle. It's sad it's quite scarce in my country.
