Resumen del Editor

There’s never been a female gryphon rider. Until me.

I just wanted to ease the suffering of Arimus, a gryphon blinded in combat. He’d lost his first rider, and his will to live. But when he forges a new psychic link with me to be his replacement rider, it brands me as “an affront to the gods” for daring to ride an avatar of the god of man.

We’re also at war, and need every able-bodied fighter we can find, so I’m sent to the highly competitive Gryphon Rider Academy to train with the nation’s finest young men. Some love seeing a girl in uniform, but most hate me for standing out. Few of the boys here want to see me succeed.

The king makes it very clear. If I fail this year at the Academy, he will mercilessly order Arimus’s execution, rather than suffer a female gryphon rider any longer.

I have to be the best to even have a chance here. They want courage, loyalty, discipline, and integrity? I’ll give them all that and more, for Arimus’s sake.

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!

So much better than expected!

Fantastic story and narrator

I bought this book on a whim and am so happy I did!! excellent storyline great characters, and I was never too sure. What was going to happen next! I highly recommend this book!

Fabulous!

Beautifully told story and very well read! The characters are really engaging. The story is fantastic and well paced, I can't wait to read the next one!

Brilliantly written.

I bought this book on paperback for my grandson for Christmas. Out of curiosity, I hunted it down on audibles. I am so glad that I did. What a captivating story! Rebekah Nemethy did an outstanding job as the narrator. I will definitely be looking for more books written by Elise Hennessy.

Great Story!

A different take on overcoming the odds, mistakes made, lessons learned rather than flying through challenges with ease. Looking forward to Book 2!

Excellent, important, and fun!

I loved the story and the characters. Must read! I can’t wait for the next one!

LOVED IT

I loved this story. The characters are well written, the plot line is interesting and different than most YA books out there currently, and the story telling was phenomenal. I can’t wait for the 3rd book to be released. This was one of those books I had constantly playing because I couldn’t put it down. Excited to see what else Elise has.

Gryphon Rider Academy: Year 1

This was a good listen especially so as Book 1 of a series. The narration was also very well done. The MC was a young girl who took care of griffons & the griffon that was presently under her care was scheduled to die. The griffon was seriously injured in battle losing both of his eyes but he grieved over his rider & feeling he was a failure, wanted to die. Sivana his caretaker was determined to save him & so this is the beginning of their adventures together.

Amazing!!

I read this book earlier in the year and absolutely loved it! When I saw that it was an audiobook as well, I knew I had to snatch that up, and I'm so glad I did!! The narrator did an absolutely amazing job bringing this story to life, and I can't wait to buy the next book!

Fun story couldn't stop

I really enjoyed this book! this was my first Audible experiance. Can't wait until I can hear the next chapter in Savanna and Ari's adventure.
