My review today is on the book Inheritance written by Chrisopher Paolini. This is the fourth and final book in the Inheritance series. The first book in the series, Eragon, has also been made into a movie. Eragon is the main charactor of the book and is chosen by the dragon Sophira to battle against the evil ruler Galvatorix and his dragon Shirikin.

Eragon is the first new dragon rider in many years. All dragons had been destroyed by Galvatorix and Shirikin. There were only 3 dragon eggs that remained and these were hidden until a new rider could be found. Once a dragon chooses its rider their life forces are combined and if the rider is killed the dragon will die as well.

Through the first three books many battles are fought trying to overthrow Galvatorix. Through each battle Eragon continues to train and also learns to use magic. The final book Brisinger wastes no time in getting into the action, in the opening chapter it starts right in the middle of a battle.

The leader of the resistence is captured and Eragon then assumes command. This is all leading up to the exciting end where Eragon joins with the elves in the final battle to try and defeat Galvatorix.

I have enjoyed this series so much. I found it to be very well written.  It was very good at telling the story not just through Eragons, eyes but through many other perspectives as well.  I am very sad that this series has finally come to an end but can’t wait to see the movies that will follow.
