It is an age when Valdemar is yet unfounded, its organization of Heralds yet unformed, and magic is still a wild and uncontrolled force. Skandranon Rashkae is perhaps the finest specimen of his race, with gleaming ebony feathers, a majestic wingspan, keen magesight, and sharp intelligence. Courageous, bold, and crafty, Skan is everything a gryphon should be. He is the fulfillment of everything that the Mage of Silence, the human sorcerer called Urtho, intended to achieve when he created these magical beings to be his champions, the defenders of his realm.

Excellent Series!
As much as I have loved this series over the years, I do believe I now have a new favorite in this most recent book. Perhaps it is because the author has referenced events in previous books wherein she built these strong characters and this tale brought all that effort together in one very enjoyable tale.
Huzzah, Mercedes Lackey! Huzzah!

Not enough words to properly review
Mercedes Lackey has been one of my favorite authors for decades and like a faithful friend I will always be prepared to hear the words she writes. I was a little disappointed in this story because I felt like this presented as more of an outline for a story vs. a stand alone novel. Because I am familiar with the previous stories I knew of the non human races mentioned and who Raven was it this is never really developed or explained. If this was the first Mercedes' Lackey book I had read I do not think I would have chosen another. She is a talented author but this book seemed to be rushed. There were parts of this story full of the richness I expect from this author heavily dosed with underdeveloped avenues/characters which left me flat and considering not finishing the book. If this is the first Mercedes Lackey book you read, please try some of her earlier books. They will not disappoint.

ok
Robotic sounding narrator made it sometimes hard to listen to. Speeding up play didn't help either.
