Inheritance

Inheritance is the fourth book in it's series. The first three books are Eragon, Eldest, and Brisinger. a lot happened in the first three books. Eragon is the main character and he finds Saphira, his dragon. Saphira and Eragon meet with the varden. Eragon, Saphira and the Varden are defeating any cities in their way all the while working to cripple Galobtrix, the evil ruler of the humans, enough to take control of the kingdom. Inheritance concludes the series. In this book the end is drawling close. Eragon, Saphira, the Varden, and all their allies are working on capturing the remaining cities so that they can face Galobtrix. Despite their best efforts Murgtah, a dragon rider under Galobtrix's control, captures the leader of the Varden. Without a leader the varden will disperse so Eragon assumes command. A lot is riding on Eragon and Saphira. Being the only free dragon and rider, they have to kill Murgtah and Galobtrix, Save the Vardens original leader, and make it out of the fight alive. All hope seems lost. Is there anyone that can help them? This book was very well written. The author spends at least a paragraph if not multiple paragraphs to describe what's going on. He describes everything they interact with in the book from buildings, to creatures, to the landscape with excellent detail. While i read this book i felt as though i was Eragon. To me the book is memorable because of the intense battles, the exquisite detail and the emotion expressed throughout the book. I wasn't really affected in a major way from this book. I was very excited to read it because in the third book the author stated that Brisinger was the last book. Also, the characters in the book reacted in almost the exact same way that i would if i were in their situation. That alone made it somewhat easier to put myself in their shoes. I personally love this book. Its one of those books that, despite its length, i would read over and over again. the entire series involves very non-realistic things such as dragons and other beasts. Don't be turned off by its size because the time spent reading it is, in my opinion, totally worth it.
