This book is just not good. It's good enough that when you finish the sample you're like oh I'll get I'll download it but then you realize it's not KU and it's five bucks it's not too bad. So you buy it figuring what's the worst that will happen You lose five bucks right?
It's so bad there are so many potholes and it is just so poorly written. Griffins are just as intelligent as human beings but allow them to self to be totally subjugated even though they're physically stronger and really humans have no advantage over them. There's no reason whatsoever to even have Griffin riders because the Griffins are just as intelligent. The author plays way too hard on the the rich versus the poor angle they just beat it to death. The action scenes are poorly explained and pretty much impossible as they described.
There's giant gaping holes in the backstory and any kind of magic that does exist in this world is just not explain to anyone at any point..
I made it halfway through where are young protagonist ends up running away from a fight because his side is overwhelmed in those were his orders. He goes to hide in some random caves and there's a team of bad guys waiting for him with no explanation on how they could possibly have known that he would have picked this very random case system to hide it it's just absolutely ludicrous.
Please please please save yourself heartache and $5.

Review of advance copy received from Author
The book leans into tension, loyalty, and the fragile balance between rider and griffons. The story follows the fallout of rising unrest within the aeries: rivalries sharpen, trust fractures, and the political undercurrents that have been simmering finally begin to boil. As new threats emerge, the riders are pushed into choices that test the limits of their bond both with their griffons and with each other. Much of the book’s momentum comes from the characters navigating shifting alliances. Secrets surface, loyalties are questioned, and the consequences of past decisions begin to close in. Fierce expands the world in meaningful ways, revealing more about the structures that govern the riders and the dangers that lurk beyond their borders. There are tense flights, moments of quiet vulnerability, and a growing sense that the freedom the riders fight for may demand a heavier price than any of them expected. What makes this installment shine is how it blends swift pacing with emotional weight. The stakes feel personal even when the conflicts widen, and the bond at the heart of the series between human and griffons remains its most compelling force. Whisper of Wings doesn’t just move the plot forward; it deepens the characters’ struggles and sets the stage for even greater upheaval to come.

Whisper of Wings delivers everything I look for in fantasy: memorable characters, emotional depth, meaningful relationships, and a story that keeps building with every chapter. The world feels rich and immersive, but what truly carried the book for me was the connection between the characters and the way their struggles, choices, and growth felt genuine.
The story balances adventure, danger, and emotion well, allowing both the plot and the characters room to breathe. I found myself invested not only in what would happen next but also in what these events would mean for the people involved. The stakes felt real, and the emotional moments landed exactly where they needed to.
If you enjoy character-driven fantasy with strong worldbuilding, compelling relationships, and a story that rewards your investment, *Whisper of Wings* is well worth the read. Easily a five-star book for me.
