Finally finished Inheritance a few days ago even though i bought it on day one. Having been with the series since it came out, I was pleased with the ending it was fine! And the series being 48 in a list of BEST EVER TEEN NOVELS is pretty awesome.

I have to admit, the first time I read Inheritence (book), I hated the ending at first. I reread it, and now I actually think that the book is amazing. Plus, the ending could have been much worse…(Eragon and Saphira enslaved to Galby for eternity, Saphira dies and Eragon goes nuts, or maybe Eragon gets eaten a by a razac and Saphira goes nuts,etc.) See what I mean? As it is, Eragon and Saphira have an awesome life filled with dragons, riders and magic ahead of them. Plus, Eragon isn’t totally saying goodbye to his friends and family(to me it’s like video chatting through a mirror, lol). I think the book was killer ( in a good way ). Inheritance Cycle has my vote for sure!! ( And I have read TONS of other teen books…) Thanks CP!!!

I apparently got in late as well and would have voted for the series. I can understand how some wouldn’t, but I think that many are being too anal about the whole thing. I, and I’m sure others here have read hundreds of works of fiction.

Once you’re familiar with the genre you start to notice patterns and become accustomed to the way these books are written. It’s my opinion that Mr Paolini followed these patterns well, especially given the circumstances in which he was writing.

The series, though flawed, as many other books, wasn’t “crap” as some have said. They were well thought out and written. He left plot holes, sure, that was a mistake, but does that really designate a series as “crap?” Really? I wasn’t looking for another Illiad, or LotR. I was looking for a good, riveting read, and I found one in the Inheritance Cycle.

Chilleth out people.
