Word of the author
I’m thrilled to announce the release of my first novel, The Voyage of the Unicorn.
Originally conceived as a legacy for my son, to help him understand some of my values and perspectives as he grows older, this story has since evolved into something greater, inspiring me to share it with you today.
This novel invites readers to envision a harmonious society where humans, AI, and nature coexist. It’s a reflective journey, blending philosophical musings, heartfelt dialogue, and a romance that serves as a guiding light through past and future.
Unlike typical action-driven, dystopian narratives, this story encourages readers to critically examine the forces shaping our world and explore how technology could elevate humanity. Through its pages, I aim to showcase one of the untapped potentials of our world and the profound beauty of what we could achieve together.
Each chapter is introduced by a vibrant illustration, and the text is presented in colour (on paper format and compatible devices), enhancing the contemplative nature of the story and delivering a unique experience.
I hope these elements, along with the ideas within, resonate with those who are curious about the future and eager to imagine a more inclusive, compassionate society.
The Voyage of The Unicorn is available in English and French on Amazon, in both eBook and paperback formats.
For those who choose to set sail on this journey, may your voyage aboard The Unicorn be nothing short of enchanting.

Author Lorenzo Ravasco's meditative pacing creates a space where complex ideas unfold naturally, allowing readers to fully absorb the depth of his story at a gradual pace.
This is a cerebral work that's not for short attention spans. I was particularly struck by his refreshing philosophical approach, which offers hope rather than the typical dystopian bleakness found in much of today's fast-paced, doom-and-gloom science fiction. His talent for weaving technology seamlessly into natural landscapes produces a world that feels both innovative and completely believable, and I loved the choice of descriptive language to bring images to life visually in the reader's mind.
What I found most compelling was how the story encouraged me to pause and reflect on my own relationship with technology and its role in human connections. The introspective tone and subtle building of tension show Ravasco's exceptional ability to maintain reader engagement without relying on constant action sequences or Hollywood-esque story gimmicks.
Overall, I highly recommend The Voyage of The Unicorn to anyone seeking a thoughtful exploration of humanity's potential future that breaks free from conventional science fiction tropes.
