Brisingr is the third book in the Inheritance series. Little unknown fact about the author, he was 16 when he wrote Eragon. The book was fantastic, which he then followed up with Elder (also great). Someone out there decided to make a movie of Eragon which was horrid, even for the low standards I place on movies based on great books. But do not let that stop you from reading this series.
The character of Eragon matures more and more each novel (as he should) along with Paolinis writing. Brisingr is the longest of the three books, having more pages than the first two combined, but the author still keeps the story moving along. Once again we are invited in the world of dragon riders through Eragon and Saphira but also into the very human world of Roran and Katrina. Roran is Eragons only surviving relative and they have a very close bond. Roran and Katrinas love is a much needed breath air in this heavy on the war and fighting book.
It was a great read and I look forward to the fourth and final novel in the series. For a novice and young writer Paolini is truly special and I look forward to reading his novels for years to come.
