- EvenSplit4040Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0An amazing story about a hunter recovering from wounds both upon his body and mind thanks to a certain jet plane with scales. I really enjoy that there is an actual difficulty of contact between the two companions, the fights are impactful instead of just empty stomps and the road to strength is paved with actual difficulties and training/prep unlike in most of this type of stories.
Huray for monstrous hunting buddies! - GhebRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0God, what a ride. If you have a passion for creative works, a deep yearning for meaningful connections in your life and or basic human emotions, I thoroughly recommend you read Sky Knights.
I cannot claim to have been reading it as the chapters came out since day one, I did however pick it up earlier this year on a week end and proceeded to binge the entire back catalogue in one sitting. I regret nothing about this. What I did regret however was waiting for the rest of the chapters to come out, something you don't have to be worried about! Because the story is complete now!
The story can be slow but it's all in service to fleshing out the narrative, there were no pointless filler chapters that made me wish I could be reading the main plot again, there were no pointless side arcs that didn't contribute to the characters developments, there were deeply enthralling combat scenes and a wide diverse spread of foes to provide interesting encounters. But more than anything, there was love. A genuine companionship that I was captured by, a cast of complimentary surrounding characters to the core duo that provided alternate and interesting opinions and viewpoints with a believable emotional web of connective relations. Topping it all off, the entire story is set in a well reasoned and comprehensive take on the MH universe that takes the often solitary and somewhat obscure monster hunter world building and combines it all into one timeline, places it all on an atlas and gives motive and reason to its most enigmatic mysteries.
I loved the story, I hope you will too. 9.9/10 because there were one or two grammatical errors if you care about that sort of thing, very rare, an odd word or two every other chapter, rounding it to 5/5 because that's no reason to not glaze my favourite story of 2025 as vigorously as I possibly can.
May the five Sapphire Stars lights your way and may the Red Comet burn eternal in your heart. - MorriganPRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Having read the whole story on another site already, I'm a bit ahead of the curve. However, with that knowledge, I have to say that this is by far the best Monster Hunter fic ever written. It's no SI like others, and doesn't follow the plot of any of the games. It's a unique experience. It's own standalone story that uses the MonHun universe as a setting, rather than a tool. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone, even those with no familiarity with the source series. If you like how it is now, trust me when I say that it only gets better. This is only the start of something great.
