" Rachel Neumeier world sand and fire are wonderful. I loved how she gave you a glimpse of all the main characters. So the reader could understand how they all had a purpose in the book. Kes was a lovely character who showed her quiet strong threw out the book. "

" This one is the weakest of the trilogy, I think because the original main character becomes unrelateable halfway through. The POV is split between two characters, so that's not terrible, but it does knock it down a star. "

" So, this was a randomly picked up book at a library book sale.... Not much to it but a nice read if you really don't want to think at all. I wouldn't search out this book to read. "

" I gotta say. I couldn't get into this book and didn't even finish it. The writing style was choppy and kind of painful. "

" An odd book- and a good one. Original storyline while holding to a few classics of the genre. Sure to be reading the next one. "

" Pretty good fantasy with a nice depiction of griffins done in a fresh and fascinating way. Dragged a little at times but it was an interesting read and I'll probably pick up the next out of curiosity to see where the story will take up. "

" Would not recommend. The overly complex names were cumbersome and and annoying. I couldn't remember who anyone was because their 15 character name with 5 i's turns into 'blah' while reading. It was a challenge to finish and such a relief when it was done. "

" Interesting take on griffin magic and mythology. I grabbed this off the 'new' shelf at the library. Enjoyable Young Adult novel (young protagonist, no sex, coming of age story) not obviously labeled as such.

" Not bad, not great. Interesting premise, but inexpertly delivered. Occasional awkward pacing, intermittent character development, and inconsistent logic make it closer to 2 stars than 4. I plan to read the next one anyway and hope for at least a slightly better result overall.
