Loved it! Read it in couple of days, because couldn't have tear myself from the book, good thing I picked it for weekend)) But seriously it is great story, evenly unraveling with everything in just right place and time. Will look forward for more work by the author!

I love it when authors accommodate a variety of tastes in their writing that would interest a broad number of audience. Good plot and character development makes the story sound lively and exciting. The book seem to be promising, which is why I can't help but grab a copy. Thank you for the review.

A book with strange yet relatable characters seems to be interesting.

Thank you for the great review.

I love that the book can be read as a standalone, interesting fantasy fiction that talks about politics, racial discrimination, power struggle and romance. The story is very relatable in human society. thanks for the amazing review.

Thank you for your glowing review! You paint a gorgeous picture of the plot. I wonder if Sunsky will be banished from gryphonic society?! I will definitely be reading. Gryphonia sounds like a world for me to enter.

This is not my usual genre, but I would be willing to read the book. Your review brought life to some of the characters. I was not sure how a book on creatures would turn out. After reading your review, I found the storyline to be interesting and will add it to my bookshelves. Thanks for the great review.

I love books with strange worlds and fantastic creatures. I may give this one a look. Thanks for the review, cristinaro.

I love the names of the characters in this book: Sunsky, Nightsky, Tale Weaver, Truth Speaker! What descriptive names these are. Although I'm not a fan of fantasy, I must say I was intrigued by this one due to the themes written into it. Thanks for a wonderful review.

I'm intrigued with "the narrative technique of the journal pretext", but I rarely read fantasy fiction, and The Gryphon will not be an exception. Thanks for the review, anyhow.

The praises don't end for this one - this incredibly well-written, exceptionally edited has a highly original story with fantastic creatures and is even a remarkable allegory of human society - what doesn't it have?

Fantasy fiction genres will always entertain readers to the core. I am interested in knowing if Sunsky abandoned Moon Wing to the Valley of Outcasts or if she gave up on the premiere queenship and suffered banishment from her society? Outstanding review. Congratulations on BOTD

The book seems interesting and intriguing. I like fantasy novels so I will gladly put this book on my To Read LIst. The idea of the book is very original, the people that are divided into two groups: gryphons and horses that consider themselves enemies, the gryphons' insecurities with not being able to fly and thus sterelising those who have such imperfections - all this sounds really interesting. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!
