Gokd morning,
I have read the review for this book, however this is not my type of reading material, I do like some fantasy novels but this one even though reviews are excellent, this just did nothing to capture my mind set.
Am sure as someone else wrote it has no profanity and to be honest I think great writers do not need to use language that is not suitable for all ages.

"The Hermit Gryphon" by Paula Grover is an engrossing story of redemption and regeneration. Talona's battle to recover and her friendship with Griper provide dimension to this fantasy story. Even younger readers will find the rich details and concepts of acceptance and forgiveness compelling. Congratulations on being BOTD!

Your review of The Hermit Gryphon captures the essence of Tal’s journey from a feared figure to a complex character seeking redemption. I appreciate how you highlighted the depth of her character development and the significant role of Griper in her transformation. It's great to hear that the book is not only well-edited but also filled with vivid details and beautiful illustrations, making it a must-read for fantasy lovers.

:techie-studyingbrown: The settings that can be imagined with simple descriptions are endless! This novel- sequel seems very interesting from the insert I've read so far. I'd like to get ahold of more Paula Grover inspired stories. I love a great page turner and this sci-fi adventure is exactly that, an adventure!

"The Hermit Gryphon" by Paula Grover, seems nailbitting, having to view the whole story from an outcast's point of view, and where kindness transcends into courtesy portrayed by Griper. Very nice review

The story appears to explore forgiveness, redemption, and second chances.  The fantasy journey weaves adventure and mythical creatures with real-life lessons that are ideal for young readers.

Nice review! I’m not a huge fantasy reader, but I have recently gained interest in trying out more of it. A story like this might actually be a good starting point. However, even though this one works as a standalone, I think I’d prefer to begin with the first book.

This review showcased many interesting and great points of the story. As I read through it, I felt compelled to read the book myself. It is a great review of the book and totally grasped the story within it.

After reading the sample provided by Amazon, "The Hermit Gryphon" is a book to look into. The world building and little teaser of the story about Tal as told by a wingless gryphon sets up the reader to take the plunge into this mystical world. Definitely going to give this one a shot.
