So nows a spoiler just, ya know a warning of that!
I hated how beating Galbatorix was SO simple! By that I don't mean they had an easy time doing it... Nope they had basically lost hope and Eragon and the 100 eldenari he found on that island just used energy to make Galbatorix understand. So he basically committed suicide. Murtagh survived and taught Eragon the name of the ancient language to control magic then left Eragon to go north somewhere.
I also hated the ending- ending like with Ayra. She became a dragon rider! They could've lived forever together in love and all that but Ayra became the queen of the elves and Eragon left Algesia forever to raise the dragon eggs. They whispered their true names to each other and then just went their separate ways.

I think Christopher Paolini accidently backed himself into a corner, and that's why certain events (like discovering the Eldunari) occurred.
But still, it was a good conclusion to the saga.



“You're right though. I should have discussed my plan with you. I'm sorry. From now on, I promise I will consult with you before I do anything you don't expect. Is that exceptable?' (Eragon)
Only if it involves weapons, magic, kings, or family members.' (Saphira)
Or flowers.' (Eragon)
Or flowers. I don't need to know if you decide to eat some bread and cheese in the middle of the night.' (Saphira)
Unless a man with a very long knife is waiting for me outside of my tent.'(Eragon)
If you could not defeat a single man with a very long knife, you would be a poor excuse for a Rider indeed.' (Saphira)�



:D

grrr...just a little?

I'm mad about the ending, of course. (Eragon and Arya separating like that, Saphira going on a needless fling with FÃrnen, the whole banning magic debacle, et cetera.)
But I am also pretty...what's the right word? Annoyed over the romance between Murtagh and Nasuada. I'm wondering where that idea materialized from. I thought that Paolini just spontaneously slapped us with it.
I may be going all matchmaker over here, but I don't see why Murtagh would fancy her. So maybe she's a strong woman, but...he's a hurting animal. Wouldn't he be drawn to someone more...tender-hearted?


He has to cause Angela said so an what she says goes lol (joking but she did predict his future when they met in the first book)


I thought the ending was a little too open ended for my liking, but it does leave a bit of hope doesn't it that Paolini will do something similar to what Riordan did with Heroes of Olympus after he "Finished" the Percy Jackson Books


I know right!

How predictable. Seriously, Isaw this coming a long way away. Maybe Paulini could have spiced this up a bit?
This was a very disappointing ending to my favourite series.


he is never going to write another, he made that clear. But he is planning to write a prequel about the dragon riders in the height of their power.

Really? His book letter implies that he'll be writing another, but he'll be starting other projects so not anytime soon.

I was looking forward to it for the the whole series and it never happened:(
