Taqi’s comments from the Christopher Paolini (INHERITANCE CYCLE series) group.

WARNING SPOILERS

I honestly love Murtagh and am totally convinced Paolini- elda (hehe) is a genius for masterminding his character development. In the beginning I doubted this guy because he was the son of Murtagh, even though he had saved Eragon's life. The actions of the Varden after that unsettled me and reassured me at the same time (strange, i know right). When he was suddenly "kidnapped" by the Twins, I knew something was up. Guess what! He comes back with a dragon and news that Eragon and him are related. But the fact that he spared Eragon's life killed off all the doubts I ever had about him, even though they had a plethora of skirmishes after that. The final straw was when after everything had happened, after the had finished off Galbatorix and taken back Uru'baen *cough* sorry, Ilirea. He could have enjoyed a life of riches and power but instead he decided to turn it down and went to wander the land.

I think that nothing really "developed" in Murtagh's character development, and the only thing that changed was the way we saw him. As a Dragon Rider, Eragon's and a slave of Galbatorix. The actions he executed cleared misconceptions about him and I would be so very happy if Mr. Paolini could write a saga on the life of this wonderful person

I think there should be one about Brom's life, like how he became a rider, fought the Forsworn, started the Varden and met Selena. That would be pretty good
