“I plotted out the Inheritance series as a trilogy nine years ago, when I was fifteen. At that time, I never imagined I’d write all three books, much less that they would be published” said Paolini. “When I finally delved into Book Three, it soon became obvious that the remainder of the story was far too big to fit in one volume. Having spent so long thinking about the series as a trilogy, it was difficult for me to realize that, in order to be true to my characters and to address all of the plot points and unanswered questions Eragon and Eldest raised, I needed to split the end of the series into two books.”
I have listened to Eragon/Eldest twice and throughly enjoyed it each time. If you go onto the forums there is a lot of speculation as to Eragon's love interest - will it be Arya (most of the girls seem to think or hope so), or Nasuada? Some postulate a new rider, a female - which is an idea I kind of like.
Will he kill Murtagh? I think he will. But, I think Murtagh will hurt him again, and not sure how. But it will make him stronger, and darker.
More to come....
