Synopsis

Gryphons are a new and budding race in the world. They suffered their share of strife and oppression when they first appeared but over time humans have become more accepting, especially as the new sport of Gryphball became popular.
Thyra and Johnathen are the first interspecies married couple in America's southern states. They have had their own struggles fitting in, dealing with racist citizens and a religious cult that sees them as abominations that should be eradicated.
Can Johnathen and Thyra live freely in a world that seems set against them?

If I could, I would give this book 3.5 stars. It was an interesting read regardless of some the issues I had with it. What I like most about this book is that I see a rich world of potential, not just in the lives of the characters in the book, but the world in which they life in. But on the other h......more
