Format:Paperback
You'll love the black gryphon. Brave, honest, sarcastic and often arrogant, a master of the smart answer, here is a character to revel in, even if he does sometimes fly in with his tailfeathers on fire. A cast of vivid characters set against the background of war and trying to survive despite the odds. I just wish I'd met him earlier in his life. Read it. Satisfaction guaranteed.

The Black Gryphon is a great book to read. It will have you worrying and crying with the characters as they deal with a war of magic proportions.
You get a look at life within the world Mercedes Lackey creates that carries through to all the rest of the valdamar series and leaves you guessing at what is going to be revealed next.
A great book and well worth buying

Really enjoyable fantasy escapism
Having previously read books by Mercedes Lackey, I had some idea of what to expect. This book is a really good read, what might be termed a page-turner! Read more
