Gryphon's Valor()

Mercedes Lackey

Set in the beloved and New York Times-bestselling world of Valdemar, this 2nd 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.
