THE BOOK JACKET:
Not so very long ago, Eragon—Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider—was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders. |

For me, Paolini left too many questions unanswered and left the reader wanting. There was just too much left unsaid. |

This last, long-awaited book in Christopher Paolini’s Inheritance Cycle was the perfect conclusion to a classic series that will never be forgotten. |

Inheritance is a fitting end to the cycle. Best of the four books, this is a culmination of the journey Christopher Paolini, and all of us, took through the series |

I have to say, this series has gone downhill. To me, the first book was the best. This last one being the worst. |

Paolini, however, is as unoriginal as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich . . . and has about as much taste. |

This book needed a lot more editing for focus and fluidity. I wasn’t disappointed but I wasn’t impressed either. |

I have two words for this book (and possibly just the author in general): Long. Winded. Or is that really one word? Whatever. It still applies. |

Has it changed? Or is it still the incredible series I knew? My answer: The latter. Inheritance is pretty much everything I expected it to be and more. |

For a fan of the series, it was a terrific book that had me glued to it until the very last page. |
