After years of waiting, the conclusion to the best-selling series 'Inheritance Cycle' by Christopher Paolini, is finally out!
Paolini, who started the book at age 15 (now 28) said: "It has lots of adventures and excitement but it's also touching and there are trying moments for the characters and some of the characters die. It's big, it's exciting, but it's intense and there's a certain bitter-sweet quality to parts of the end." courtesy of: Book Seller
The book sold half a million copies on the first day of release according to Random House Children's Books.
Who's excited to read it? I know I am!
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.
Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can. There will be no second chances.
The Rider and his dragon have come further than anyone dared to hope. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alagaƫsia? And if so, at what cost?
This is the much-anticipated, astonishing conclusion to the worldwide bestselling Inheritance cycle. courtesy of: Barnes & Noble
