Gryphon's Eyrie

Witch World: High Hallack Cycle, Book 6

By: Andre Norton, A. C. Crispin

Narrated by: John Lee, Adjoa Andoh

The heritage of the Gryphon will choose its own. The time of choice is now.

The urge within him is overwhelming, and Kerovan - he of the cloven hooves and amber eyes - is driven toward the mountains - toward the dark. With him goes the Lady Joisan, who carries with her secrets unknown to Kerovan.

By calling upon the powers within themselves, willing the forces of light to fight against the forces of the dark, they reach their destination...only to face That Which Runs the Ridges in the final battle. Everlasting undeath - and horror for all the world - will take them if they fail.

Satisfying continuation of a beloved story

Back in my youth, I read The Crystal Gryphon and loved it, but never realized that it was only one book in a longer series. I'm delighted to have found these well-narrated audio editions. Listening to them, I have been carried deeper into the saga involving the Gryphon while building my knowledge of the surrounding culture, its history, its geography and people. Every book in the High Hallack Cycle is worthwhile, although one or two of them seemed a little "unfinished," more like vignettes than complete stories. Taken overall, however, the series is a standout.

One of my favorite books

Witch World's series is just one of the best fantasy series. It is easy to listen, interesting and just perfect for your imagination.
