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.

Got my interest.
It captured me, but way too long. Hopefully won’t have to wait too long for a continuation.
Fantastic!
Dammit I need the next!
A retelling of a prior short story
As I surmised from the title this is a more fleshed out version of the Larry Dixon short story Transmutation. This was first published in an anthology called Crossroads. It is a tale of a gryphon named Kel (Kelvren) a character that first appeared in the trilogy about the Owl Knight, Darian. I am giving it 4 stars just based on the short story as I have not finished this version yet. Looking forward to the next book in the series moving beyond what I already know.
