The Eagle's Flight

This is the best crafted and most sophisticated piece of writting on this site.  Period.  Just cause I say this is the best doesn't mean that other stories are bad or lacking something.  It just means this is in it's own catagory.  It is a novel on a site that has various degrees of quality serial writting. 

This even stacks up well with some of the best fantasy novels of the past few years and deserves to be in the conversation with them.  It's literally on that level.  If you're a fantasy fan looking for a real book then read this and tell your friends about it.

A perfect 5 star for a great story. It's 3 am atm and I am to tired to go into much more detail, all the adrenaline from binging this were all gone. nevertheless, this novel belongs to the top 3 novels I like here in RR.  Cheers to you Master Quill!! Onwards to your next work, the Firebrand!!

I honestly believe that Quills stories are one of the best ones on this site. Grammar ia impecable. Characters feel like they could be real people for how well they're written, they all have their own motivations and thought patterns (I cant remember the word right now). Coupled with excelent and believable depictions of battles and time between battles, this is a story that is well worth a read.

Im not good at writing reviews, so tldr is Story good.  Read.

TLDR: This is writing that reminds me of Sanderson or even GRR Martin's work. It's a long-form work, with great chunks of chapters that focus more on political intrigue rather than action-oriented adventure. Patient reading pays off.

Interestingly enough I'd argue that there's no one MC. But you'll get an eagle's eye view of the world that the kingdom of Adalmearc exists in, as well as a fly-on-the-wall entrance to its most private machinations.

TEF is without a doubt has the most immersive and complete feeling world of anything I've read on RR (and I've read nearly every top fiction) filled with competent and likeable characters, intrigues, and enough mystery to always leave the reader wondering about what the characters don't know. the important and recurring characters are interesting and enjoyable to read. the antagonists are fun to hate, and sometimes to side with. there is very few shallow characters (the few I can think of I'll let slide because I think that they represent a type of person which certainly exists/existed.) and people tend to act rationally. just a great story in general, and long enough to last you a long while.

This story really checks all the boxes. Well constructed plot, creative world building, fleshed out characters. The different nations each have their own geopolitcal issues, complex plots that cross with other nations in ways that feel realistic, not convuluted or confusing. The author developed well fleshed out cultures for countries and came up with imaginitive belief systems for religions. You really wonder where each character is going to end up when the story ends. 
In general, very well done.

I have read many stories on RR and this is, for me, without a shadow of a doubt the best one, of those that I have read and I doubt that there is another of this quality, of those that I will read in the future. When I saw such high praises in other reviews I was a little sceptical, but after reading it, the only thing that I can say is that compared to everything else on Royal Road 5 stars isn't enough.

Grammar

Grammar is practically flawless. I think that after 2.5k pages I saw 2 errors that were easily overlooked.

Style

This story has one thing that almost always makes me stop reading, almost always ruins and spoils stories for me and that is multiple POVs. And boy, let me tell you, this story has a lot of them. But never, not a single time did I ask myself, did i really need to know that? Was that scene necessary? I was never bothered when we left some characters behind to look at others because I never felt like I lost anything. Every POV adds to the story and has me at the edge of my seat. Transitions between POVs are seamless. I always knew whose POV it was. In conversations I was never lost, not knowing who was saying which sentence. I was fully immersed in this world that was masterfully woven. In the end I think that multiple POVs are not a problem, when they are used correctly, and while many other stories might fail there, this one does not.

Story

This story reminds me of a spiders web. Something that happens on one side of the continent ripples and influences everything else. Nothing is isolated. Characters are standing on an edge and if they push someone else they themselves will lose balance, but maybe the third one that was pushed by the fourth will hit the first and balance eachother out. It was unpredictable, you never knew what might happen and what the consequences of characters actions might be. After each chapter this story only grows deeper, some mysteries are revealed only for other to take their place. This world is vast, with history, religion, every region has different cultures and customs. And in the end it's all complemented by amazing characters.

Characters

In one word, these characters are simply human. They are well rounded with wants, needs and ambitions. They all have their virtues and flaws. When they are presented with a problem they never break character. These characters push the story forwards and as the events unfold they are changed as they go along.

I am a little ashamed because i can't do this story justice in my review. It's was so enjoyable reading this story but I can't translate my full admiration in writing. I just finished reading it and had to leave a review and try my best.

Give it a try.

Author thank you for writing and all the best luck to you.

Happy 100th Chapter to The Eagle's Flight.

Not Much more to say, everyone that knows this story can say without the shadow of a doubt, that this is by far the best written story here.

Thanks for the chapter :>

The Eagle's flight will present you a great, well planned fantasy story in a detailed and consistently set up fantasy world. You will find a, in my opinion, good mix of character interaction, politics, intrigue, and action.

Compared to the average story on RR there is less focus on 'action' but I think the average story focuses on action too much anyway; I put this here because it might be relevant for somebody reading this review. All characters feel believeable and many different characters are continuisly developed which is one of the greatest strengths of the story.

Overall I have nothing to complain about - the only minor point is that I am unsure about the authors decision to focus each book on one location and the currently present characters. I don't think switching perspectives often would have been better. It is just a natural issue that happens to stories with many characters and locations - you cannot be everywhere at the same time even if you'd like to.

And as last point I will highlight what makes the story for me 5* worthy (instead of 4-4.5* which I'd usually give for a great story with great cast): There are [believeable] successes, setbacks and revoceries in this story - The struggles the charachters in this story fall into are authentic and not just for the sake of 'making this more difficult'. This leads to an excellent [and here on RR basically never seen] balance of the story developing the cast while at the same time the cast drives the story.

This story is amazing. I love how the author did his worldbuilding but also the characters. I can give a lot of praise to it but will say that the battles can lack a bit of feeling. Hope to see more soon!
