Ari and I must establish something to last for years to come. Wild Flight. The new, fragile alliance we have with the wild gryphons will be challenged from all sides, as the concept of Wild Flight changes what we believed about the gryphons and who they Link with. While Ari is busy tending to his family, both wild and tame, I help train the newest cadets at the Gryphon Rider Academy. I see hope for a future where only the most compassionate men and women earn the opportunity to Link with a gryphon. For the first time, the yearlings will select their riders. When a man who is less tolerant assumes command of the gryphon knight corps, it appears that he is intent on forcing all gryphons to remain war steeds. I will fight to keep Wild Flight free, and I have my friends and a whole flock of gryphons to help along the way. Dragon Riders of Pern meets Song of the Lioness in the final book of this YA fantasy series in which a pair of underdogs rewrite what’s possible in a formerly all-boys military academy and beyond. If you like determined heroines, iron-clad friendships, and majestic creatures, then you’ll love Gryphon Rider Academy!
