Time is ticking away for Evalle Kincaid. She has been ordered to round up the Alterants for the Goddess Macha's pantheon. The beleaguered agent has no way of knowing that she is about to be a part of the RISE OF THE GRYPHON.

To do her duty she has to join in an Achilles Beast Championship, a rather large unapproved of fighting club. On top of getting involved in this to find other Alterants and persuade them to go to the Goddess, Evalle finds that the Medb are also seeking them for their own plans.

Storm will not let her go alone into this dangerous situation but after finally getting her where he wants her he finds that she is being hunted by more than the Medb. The witch doctor who has tormented him is now after Evalle. Not going to happen, he will stop her now!

RISE OF THE GRYPHON is the fantastic continuation of the Belador series. The action starts on page one and blows you away to the very end. With all of the characters that are involved in this series it might be possible to lose the thread of the storyline, but authors Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love have a mastery with words that won't let you get lost. Even though this is part of a series this book stands alone perfectly. I am already looking for the next installment of the series.
