The Eagle (The Camulod Chronicles, Book 9)

So much potential! So great up to the last 50 pages!
Jack did you simply decide "I've made enough money I'm not going to write anymore"?
The book was so perfect up to the ending! then it simply stops! there was so much more to be explored! I understand the desire to put the series to a rest. But there was alot more that could have been done.
Frankishly I wanted much more, I guess I'm just to addicted to the series.

I can't believe the journey is over!! ...but I think I would have like the ending to be a little long. I feel that the last 50 pages was a little rushed and a heck of a lot of things happened.

One of the best book series I've ever read!!

Oddly, the last is my least 'favourite' in the series. After 8 books leading up to the rule of Arthur himself, Whyte chooses to take only one book to look at the actual man and time that inspired the legends. Perhaps Whyte felt that all that had been done repeatedly, but I was disappointed - I wanted more than just one Chronicle on Arthur's rule after building up to it for almost 8,000 pages. A good read, but left me missing the earlier books.

I like the historic setting, but I agree, compared to the climactic battles between Varrus and Seneca, etc., the ending is very dry. The entire series sets you up for this moment, but the end is disappointing. But good, all the same.

great series, the ending was anti-climatic - not because you knew Arthur would die, but because there is no detail and so much uncertainty!

Loved the plausible, historical setting of the series. Always had a problem with anachronistic flaws in other Arthurian series. I enjoyed the fact that Whyte brought in the history of the era in western Europe to give a larger perspective of what may have happened. As always, a bit sad to see a good series end but that's life!

I just finished the entire series and loved it. Whyte's take on the legend is far more plausible than the romances themselves. As an Arthurian literature scholar, I am impressed with how Whyte incorporated little details from the romances into the series. His history is dead-on, too. I feel a bit sad to have finished the series, as the characters have been part of my life for months now.

Great book. The last two in the series tell the story of Arthur and Camelot from the perspective of Lancelot. Bebunks a few myths too.

Loved the series,up until the end. What gives.... I read all those books, was complety entralled and then nothing. Now I'm left with no great emotion for the series at all and wondering if I should continue my journey into another series.

There are few writers that deserve the title of Master StoryTeller but 'Magister Whyte' you deserve to be called one! Thank you for a most amazing series!
