Second, I freaking loved it!
I always get excited at the prospect of a new fantasy to sink my teeth into, this book is no
exception.
The story plays out through the eyes of our heroine, Tarren, we discover the world of Runeskills, Runebonds and what it takes to protect those we love.
It delved into some deeper themes at the very beginning of the book, by dragging us deep into the outskirts of their reality and making us witness to the terrifying reality that nature can bite back.
The early story speaks of how life-changing one simple accident can be, and how guilt can tear into
ones entire being, making us shut off parts of ourselves that have enabled that failure that
led up to the event, leading to the thought, which is better?
Living with knowledge someone
died on your watch, or living knowing that person will suffer through life because of you?
I love how the story focuses on the perception of Gryphons being vicious beasts rather than some
fantastic mythic creature to be cherished and adored. They are written as cruel and malicious towards the MC.
The rest of the story focused on the uprising of a percentage of the population that choose to live without their abilities, waiting in essence, for the
mothership while getting crazy and causing a fuss.
I loved the MC feisty nature, her willingness to believe in herself and her passion.
There is much more I could say, but I believe it's something you should read for yourself.
Gryphons and Runes is another 5⭐ read for me, and a stunning tale that will leave
readers with questions and feelings, but also knowledge that more is yet to come.
I will recommend it to all.
