Gave up on this. Too long winded and nothing happens

Christopher Paolini continues to take his writing to the next level with research and greater involvement into character and plot development. Brisingr proves that a story is mold-able and malleable in that the story can never truly be complete, but rather that a chapter can be recorded. Can't wait for the final development of Paolini's first Cycle.

good

Paolini is able to mix Star Wars saga with fantasy.
Still worth a read, anyway!

in the third novel of the Inheritance cycle the author seems a lot more mature. I've enjoyed this last book a great deal. I think I read it all in less than a week.

I could not get myself to put the book down because I was so curious to see how the story develops towards the end.. I do look forward to reading the 4th book of the cycle and I truly hope it will be the last because, honestly, I thought the "Inheritance" would be a trilogy and I was very disappointed to read "to be continued"

"A secret shared is no secret at all."
"Anger is a poison. You must purge it from your mind or else it will corrupt your better nature."
These, together with the many other quotes I have already mentioned, make of this book a wise adventure, which reminds that of Frodo and his quest to destroy the ring!
It took me long to read this book because I had so many things keeping my mind busy that I couldn't really concentrate on the story.
When I finished it I was surprised! I thought this was the last book of the trilogy, but it's no trilogy at all and there's a fourth book coming! Well, so I can't tell you much apart from the fact that after some fights, a teaching session and a new weapon... Eragon, Saphira and their friends will have to endure one more challenge: fighting and destroying Galbatorix.
(I have to say I must fight a smile everytime I read this name, because it reminds me of Asterix... I can't really see him as the scary and bad king, who must be defeated! I mean... he's no Dark Lord Sauron...).
So... you and I will have to wait for the fourth book!
