I only wanted to save my gryphon’s life. Giving him a second chance isn’t a crime.
Arimus and I face the toughest challenge yet at Gryphon Rider Academy, the infamous Trial by Fire. If either of us fail, it will be the proof the Crown needs to take Ari from me.
Passing the most grueling classes yet is just the beginning of the danger. There’s someone here who’s trying to make sure I am both the first, and last, female gryphon rider. I fear they’re working off the king’s orders.
Meanwhile, I soon learn why the crown prince is manipulating my reputation with the Altarian people. He may have intervened on my behalf once, but when he calls in his favor, I realize how much my choices will affect the future of our nation. He will use my name to ignite a civil war.
And worst of all, I don’t know how to stop it, only that I must.
Dragon Riders of Pern meets Song of the Lioness in this YA fantasy series in which a pair of underdogs rewrite what’s possible in a formerly all-boys military academy. If you like determined heroines, iron-clad friendships, and majestic creatures, then you’ll love Gryphon Rider Academy!
