I am loving this series! Vahly and her friends set off to find other ways to gain her powers as the earth queen and find, among other things, an egg. And since there are already plenty of dragons, and so it can't be a dragon egg, we get a twist - a gryphon egg. Humans were known to love their pets after all. And this gryphon is everything we didn't know to hope for - just don't fight Vahly's love interest out of a misguided-yet-super-cute need to protect her! Complete with underwater adventures and a few "cons," this book is non-stop adventure from beginning to end. And of course, a cliff-hanger, making me thankful I have the entire series. You have been warned. ( )

Wow! This story is one that is full of twists and turns with an explosion of drama and suspense. It has you on the edge of your seat glued to it to find out what happens next. It is extremely well written and the characters have grown dramatically. It is a stunning piece of work with vivid descriptions that just adds that extra element. Yes, it does end in a cliffhanger but boy I can’t wait to see what happens next. This story and series is a must read!!!!!! ( )
