There's a bit of Ahiru/Fakir in Unicorn/Lir, I think, in that they both end with a mountain of duty, not a little bit of tragedy, and a separation they can work against. But yes, the similarities between PT and The Last Unicorn aren't perfectly clean-cut. It excites me so greatly to think that two people can write this same metaphysical fairy tale without ever having to meet.
I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A SEQUEL. O_O I can't believe it; there's actually a sequel! It didn't even occur to me that it might have a sequel; tLU by itself was so good that any more of it would sound too good to be true. Like PT. ;_;
