Paolini’s world has always interested me, as have his characters and the overall story he was telling. So you can imagine my trepidation stepping into reading the fourth and final instalment in the ‘Inheritance Cycle’, Inheritance.Ĭolour me absolutely surprised because I really liked it. Poor storytelling and a massive and distressing reliance upon in-world magic to solve anything and everything delivered stories that were, in many ways, useless. Sadly, for the next two books, Eldest and Brisingr did not live up to that potential. Eragon was filled with such potential and a great story and world that I immediately looked forward to sequels that would see the author grow in his craft.



I have not been the greatest proponent of Christopher Paolini’s work.
