Gift of Griffins

The "fresh, engaging new fantasy series" continues as a young woman must hone her magical abilities as she faces enemies on all sides in the fight to save her homeland (Julie E. Czerneda, author of A Turn of Light)

Talent Kerida Nast and her companions have fought hard against the invading Halian forces. But though they have found Jerek Brightwing, the true Luqs of Farama, the country remains in the cruel hands of the Halians. The fight has only just begun.

For the Halians have installed their own puppet LuqsJerek's father. And as Ker's skills as a psychic Talent grow stronger, she must somehow learn the subtle arts of persuasion and politicking if she is to unite her quarreling allies who still harbor a strong distrust of each otherand a suspicion of her magical gifts.

Still, this bigotry is nothing compared to the Halians, who see all women as little more than chattel. Mere possessions that exist to diminish the greatness of men. And a woman of Talents is seen as an abomination to be destroyed at all costs.

But now, their own twisted beliefs may prove to be their undoing.

For Bakura, the Princess Imperial of the Halians and soon-to-be-Queen possesses her own long-hidden magical gifts. And her greatest desire is to escape the corrupted world of power she was born into, and be free to embrace who she truly is. All she needs is someone to help her

Someone like Kerida.
