Description
All Griff ever wanted out of life was to be left alone in his library with his books. In order to keep his station in the library, he is forced to work with an upstart alchemist named Nicholas Flamel.
When the experiment goes awry Griff and Nick must trek along the countryside to reach the Library of Alexandria. Dodging both African and European armies would be so much easier if Griff wasn't a two-story dragon."

- NLinCHRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Though I recognised some grammar mistakes (like a missing negation), I never felt troubled by it as there weren’t too many at once or ones that made the story illegible.
Furthermore, I like the way you kept the focus of the story and didn’t overextend it. You include two POVs but only for as long as strictly necessary.
Lastly: I love the story in and off it self. An apprentices live, a bookworms wish, a researchers journey and a dragons desire: you managed to compact this all into one story of no more than 12 chapters.
I fully enjoyed them and the few side tangents and thank you for writing.
PS. Requiring a few more words I will simply end my review with a few more thanks: thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks thks - j03manRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0A fun adventure. Although shallow, Characters are clearly defined enough that it doesn't detract from the Cavalier magic adventure.
The grammar is very bad in places. Necessary words are completely missing from sentences, words are used in the wrong context, adjectives and adverbs are repeated redundantly, mid paragraph switches between first and third person perspective, etc.
Definitely needs proofreading but it's such a breath of fresh air to read a classic feeling magical medieval adventure! - This HumanRoyal Road★★ 2.0I'll be brutally honest. You have a potentially greatstory that needs a lot of polishing.
You need to begin proof reading. Your style is consistent though a tad plain. The characters are unidimensional and need more depth.
I believe you only need practice to improve.
