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

I had always wanted something to happen with Eragon and Arya's relationship, weither that ment him falling out of love or them getting together. But I didn't like this ending where they admitted to falling for eachother but nothing came of it.

I agree that Arya becoming the rider we all new was going to happen and I agree I wish that it hadn't been so predictable.

I really wish that we found out what happened to Murtagh and Thorn and how they delt with what they where forced to do, also if anything else happened to Murtagh and Nasuada's relationship.

Finally I hate to say it but this would have been the book for an epiloge, say 10,50, or 100 years down the road to find out what happened with, well everything.

It was pretty good, but I wasn't quite satisfied with the ending and he left himself plenty of room to write more books in this world.

I'm finished!

I'll make it worse Heather and Auroralumi, I'm on page 762 of 849 :)

My copy is here!!!!

I pre-ordered my copy from Amazon so I now have to wait for it to get here!

I just started my big reread yesterday! Can't wait till my copy of Inheritance gets here.

If there was a note like that I might just actually kill Christopher Paolini....

Last night I had a nightmare about this book (there where other things but its the thing that stuck with me) but in the dream the cover was mangled with red around three sides (yes I now what it really looks like) and I was several hundred pages in it and the story hadn't moved.

Just thought I would share my weird dream and ask if anyone else is having nightmares/worries about this book.

I have a note books some where with a bunch of theories about book 3/4 (I made it before the third with no idea there was to be a 4th), but I need to find it...

I like it and it sound very possible.

I agree you with you JD some Dragons as well as Riders live on past their lose.

Heather wrote: "Has anyone read Secret of the Dragon Riders? Just curious what it was about and if it was worth it. :)"

I've read it and no it's not worth it. It basically just a bunch of essays on people thoughts on the books and I don't think it includes the 3rd book.

No it's okay, I get what you are saying. I'm a speed reader too, but I need to read them right before I read the last (I love saying that!) to get and keep it all in my head.

I'm going to reread them but probably not to that schedule, I'm probably going to read end of October into November.

Guess not ;) Now we just have to sit on our hands until November and watch and see how low the price goes.

On Amazon? Currently (as of yesterday) they are having it with no shipping cost.

Here (copied of the books page) is their "Special Offers and Product Promotions" go to the page to see the Here's how.:

Free Standard Shipping (3-5 days) on this item from Amazon.com. Simply select Standard Shipping during checkout (no code required). Valid on qualifying items only. Here's how (restrictions apply)

Pre-order Price Guarantee! Order now and if the Amazon.com price decreases between your order time and the end of the day of the release date, you'll receive the lowest price. Here's how (restrictions apply)

The good thing with Amazon on pre-ordering is that it doesn't charge you until the release and if the price drops between now and the book release I get the cheapest price.

Heather do you have a library close by? If you do and they are getting the book you might be able to be put on a waiting list for the book or by how early it is you may be first in line for it!

Who has pre-ordered their copy? I just pre-ordered mine from Amazon.

Johnny Apple seed was a really person, but from what I've read (I think it was in the The $64 Tomato) he actual sold the trees, he didn't just give them away.
