I’m not sure I could be more sad right now.
The Inheritance Cycle is over. It’s over!
I feel like I was married to this book. Okay, that’s a bit strange, but I read the first book a few months after I got married and slowly but surely a book has come out throughout the big events of my life. It’s almost like I have measured the length of my adulthood with this series and now it’s done. So does that mean I’m going to die soon? KIDDING!
But I must say, I love how it ended.
I loved it.
I loved how it didn’t end like 4 pages after the final battle too.
This is a fabulous book and I really hope it goes down into the halls of literature with the likes of all the other great epic tales because I truly think it’s epic.
I mean, it has it’s own map, world, languages, battle struggle between good and evil, young boy, mentor, journey, group of friends, betrayal, love, final battle that changes the face of a world; how much more epic can it get?
Again, SO sad this series has come to an end, but I loved the way it did. Oh and it was 880 pages long. How awesome is that?
five stars and YES read it!
Summary:
Not so very long ago, Eragon—Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider—was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders. Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can. There will be no second chances. The Rider and his dragon have come further than anyone dared to hope. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alagaësia? And if so, at what cost?
This is the much-anticipated, astonishing conclusion to the worldwide bestselling Inheritance cycle.
