Brisingr: The Inheritance Trilogy Becomes a Cycle


As I was nearing the end of Brisingr, what I thought was the final book in the Inheritance Trilogy, I learned that it was no longer a trilogy. That explained why I couldn't imagine how Christopher Paolini was going to have Eragon beat Galbatorix with less than a quarter inch of pages to go. I thought I'd be frustrated, and I was a bit. However, Chris' short, sweet and helpful explanation of how he couldn't possibly fit it all into one book appeased me. Now I'm just waiting with breathless antici......

..... pation (sorry I couldn't pass up the "Rocky" reference) for the fourth book in what is now the Inheritance Cycle.
