The Gryphon's Lair by Kelley Armstrong

4.0

SO cute! The jackalope, the gryphon and other monsters are actually pretty cute (at least the ones Rowan befriends/imprints on).

I know that several reviewers say to read Book 1 first, but I think it's fairly easy to catch up to the plot and plotting going on. Rowan is a wonderfully strong character, happier now in her role as Royal Monster Hunter than in her former role as Heir Apparent; the other characters are also fleshed out relatively well (with one exception), something that doesn't always happen in other books. The most disappointing part is that this is a duology and I'd love more of this world and these creatures.
