Algernon Do you think the author's prose has notably improved between these last two Inheritance books? I will have to re-read the older ones, but I think the last time I did I struggled with how bad some parts were. I didn't have this issue as much with this book.


Barn Owl It was well edited and clear to read. Still has a lot of showing vs telling. I think the simple sentence structure and "simple words plus a few very rare words" is a permanent part of his style. But he's clearly a better writer than Eragon or Eldest.


MikeLikesBooks Yes, a big improvment.
