Finally completed this reread. To be honest, I struggled a lot. It seemed too slow and there was too much dwarf politics for my taste. But I made it. The world-building is meticulous, but I wanted more action. I love the imperfection in the characters though, and it‘s fun to see the author grow book to book. One more reread in this series and then to the new one!

What a joy to do a full reread of this series before I get into the newly released “Murtagh”. Such a childhood favorite and holds up well! #reread #audio

I‘m rereading this series in prep for the new book just released from the World of Eragon: Murtagh. I absolutely adored these books when I first read them years ago and they hold up well in rereading. They are sort of Tolkien-light, but as long as you aren‘t a snob that‘s not a bad thing. I highly recommend the audiobooks narrated by Gerard Doyle. He does a magnificent job portraying these characters.

MeganAnn I love these too! My son just got Murtagh for Christmas. He recently finished the third book and is loving them so far. I am contemplating a reread of the others before diving into the new one too. 11mo
annahenke @MeganAnn highly recommend - they hold up very well! 8mo

This was such a delight to reread in anticipation of the new Inheritance Cycle book Murtagh. Can‘t believe how well it holds up!

Reread of book 2 of #theinheritancecycle is complete. More worldbuilding in this one. Lots of details. It took me quite a while to get through it, though I enjoyed it.

🔥Brisingr, the third installment of the Inheritance Cycle, is an epic adventure! 📚😄 I was thrilled by the political twists that added spice to the story. These books are like finding your long-lost BFF! 🧡 Eragon, Saphira, and the gang are still rock stars in my book. 🌟 If you're a fantasy fan, this series is a MUST! 🐉📖 #FantasyFave

I absolutely loved "Eldest" and the Inheritance Cycle holds a special place as one of my top five favorite book series of all time. Returning to this series after such a long time is always a delight for me. I cannot wait for the new book, & let me tell you, my excitement is bubbling hotter than a dragon's breath! Until then, I'll be practicing my ancient language skills & brushing up on my swordplay. Bring it on, Paolini!??️

Enjoying those beautiful sunny days in Miami, lounging in the hammock in the backyard with my puppies, and diving into a good book. I can't wait for the new Eragon book in November, and I'm rereading the Inheritance Cycle in the meantime! 📚😊 ☀️📚🐶 #MiamiDays #Bookdragon #ExcitedForNovember #inheritancecycle

Tamra Pups! 13mo

I finished this today. What an amazing adventure. Does it have some elements of LOTR? Yes, but honestly so much fantasy does. It does not take away from THIS amazing story at all. Very well told/written. And that ending. Wowza! So glad I have the next book waiting already. I can't wait to see what comes next!

"It seems a cold world without something...more."
"On the contrary," said Oromis, "it is a better world. A place where we are responsible for our own actions, where we can be kind to one another because we want to and because it is the right thing to do instead of being frightened into behaving by the threat if divine punishment. I won't tell you what to believe, Eragon. It is far better to be taught to think critically......"
YES TO ALL OF THIS!
