What little we know of Angela's origins is expanded upon in this novel.though, instead of filling in the gaps, I feel like it's creating whole new ones. The first one will always be my favorite but all in all, I'm really pleased by the way this series turned out.Īngela and the werecats absolutely riveted. Now, that I'm 25, I've decided to go for a reread - all the while crossing my fingers that I still love it (am I the only one who gets scared by rereads? What if the book doesn't hold to my memories? What if younger-me had bad taste?)Īnd oh thank goodness - I still love this series. "I am not who I was," he whispered, gripping the edges of the column, "but I know who I am.And I won't give up." GAH! My heart is just so happy.įor context - I first read this series in middle school and absolutely adored it. He's stockpiled unimaginable power - power so great that despite all of the training in the world, Eragon and Sapphira can barely hold a candle to the evil king.īut fight they must, for the alternative is far more terrifying than either of them are willing to comprehend. The king has held his long reign through more than sheer luck. All that's left is to defeat King Galbatorix. He's fought the shade, the Ra'zac, Murtagh and more. Along the way, he's faced trials, tribulations and terror.

This book makes my heart happy.Įragon has graduated from isolated farmboy to savior of the kingdom. Why does everything have to be so hard? wondered.īecause, said Saphira, everyone wants to eat, but no one wants to be eaten. Because I would never destroy books, and I don't actually own the copy I'm reading.

Thus, it is with much regret that I invite everyone who was as dissatisfied as me to a bonfire that uses the last 80 or so pages of Inheritance as kindling (I WARNED YOU PAOLINI!) To be honest I couldn't help but love every single damn page of that stupid story- but to me the ending just wasn't right! I want a re-write of the ending! I know that your plot was amazingly brilliant and that all the details were intricate and perfect. I CAN'T EVEN COMPARE IT TO ANYTHING BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T PUT ANY ERAGON/ARYA ROMANCE IN THERE!Īnd then you had the AUDACITY, to go and hint at the Nasuada/Murtagh romance and then PULL IT OUT FROM RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES! NO! THAT IS NOT RIGHT! You wrote four MONSOROUS TOMES of creative genuis, and you couldn't even SPARE A SENTENCE for Eragon and Arya! I don't care if you're the author, and you have your little creative steaks of whimsy, but it's just damn logical that they should be together- They even admitted it themselves!!! And okay, fine, maybe they didn't have to traipse off to some mystical, magical other land together, but a kiss would have been nice?! Or even some form of romance other than. I actually happened to love this book, but I'm just a tad mad at the ending at the moment. For those of you who don't like ranting- Don't read it.

Before I begin this, I'd like to say that it's a rant.
