About this ebook

A mute elven archer known only as Killer. Azyrin, a half Winter-orc shaman and his human swordswoman bride, Makha. Drake, the charming, swashbuckling rogue. The fireball-slinging pixie-goblin, Rahiel, and her mini-unicorn, Bill.
These are the Gryphonpike Companions.

Arriving in Strongwater Barrow, the Companions find the town riddled with plague and death. Ending the curse and saving the survivors means going into the swamps where monsters lurk and witches wait. Sounds like exactly their kind of day.

Also in the Gryphonpike Chronicles series:

I enjoy this book a lot! It really showcases D&D to the fullest! Cons: 1) The battle scene was described a bit too much for vividness. 2) Some supporting characters don't get much spotlight. 3) The antagonists were treated poorly. 4) Scarce dialogues. 5) This book could be longer if given the chance to focus on other things that aren't battle-related. Pros: 1) Various D&D classes exist. 2) The protagonist has a heart & not morally grey. 3) Team dynamics. 4) Characters with agencies that aren't humans. 5) Despite it's a fantasy, it still maintains some realism. 6) Happy ending. Consider the book is free and short, it's truly worthwhile.

“We can’t solve all problems with books and reading, but we can try to make sure all kids have access to book they can relate to and choose to read- to escape into a good story and help kids make sense of the world around them and their own feelings.”

as far as the fantasy is concerned, it is well written. but the story doesn't define any mystery or any twists or any turns. the author has went too far in describing the events with little familiarity of ascribing commendable u-turns. the book gets a bit boring as there's nothing different. I wish the author had took some time and had made it a mysteries pixie-goblin adventure and a bit dramatic too. as a vivid reader ain't recommending. yet if you wanna read the book to enhance your vocabulary and to get the idea of addendum synonyms used by the author, you can read it on your part.
