Gryphon in Light

By Mercedes Lackey & Larry Dixon
Gryphon in Light by Mercedes Lackey & Larry Dixon digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Set in the beloved and New York Times bestselling world of Valdemar, this 1st book in a new trilogy returns to the tales of the majestic gryphons.

On the border between Valdemar and the deadly Pelagirs Forest, the gryphon hero Kelvren returns from a near-fatal self-sacrifice that won him the approval of Valdemar's ground troops, but caused a diplomatic crisis.  Frustrated by his lack of a hero's welcome, Kelvren is talked into helping with an expedition by his old friend, Firesong.

Firesong struggles with his own age and mortality, and he intends to solve a vast mystery at the center of legendary Lake Evendim as his crowning achievement. Just getting the multicultural fleet underway is a challenge, but what awaits them is a situation none of them could expect.

Set in the beloved fantasy realm of Valdemar, Gryphon in Light is adventurous epic fantasy at its best.

“This book was really good! The introduction of Gryphons was an interesting twist in my opinion. Granted, I only read one or two books in the Valdamar series, I found this one really intriguing and a good first book in a new series. =)”
“Audio ARC provided via Netgalley. All opinions are my own. This was fine. It was readable and enjoyable but in Lackey's vast body of Valdemar novels and even vaster body of fantasy over all, this didn't really stand out. If you're a big fan of Valdemar, you're going to notice a few annoying inconsistencies/ continuity errors. On the other hand, if you love the Gryphons and their culture, you're probably going to love this. In some ways this reads as YA - and I mean no slur when I say that. It's just that the way certain aspects of mentally growing up are addressed combined with Lackey's very accessible style might make you think of your own teenage years. That said, despite the slow burn start, this was a fun read. Not the Valdemar novel to start with but still solid fantasy.”
