A review by raiju01
The Black Gryphon by Mercedes Lackey, Larry Dixon
3.0
Three facets to this book:
The characters and relationships were simple, but I loved the coziness of it as I've come to expect from the authors
The magic is little-explored but what we saw was interesting, it felt new, exciting and unique
The war and strategy stuff was not good, it's all tell don't show, and even then it's bad, and it felt like the protags are usually put into a bad place by force.
All in all, excited to get into this 40+ book epic, solid first book.
