Plot summary
In The Rise of the Black Wolf, Max and his fellow Grey Griffins (Natalia, Harley, and Ernie) set off on another adventure, traveling to Scotland to visit Max's father for the winter holidays.
The four friends explore Lord Sumner's ancient castle and the dark forest that surrounds it.
Once again, the Grey Griffins must do battle with Fireball Pixies, an army of Werewolves, and the Black Witch, Morgan LaFey. But when Lord Sumner, Max's father, disappears, the Grey Griffins must rescue him with the Knights Templar. Max's father betrays him and tells Max he staged the incident before (Revenge of The Shadow King). Ernie, however, falls into a coma.
