Customer Review: Despite their flaws, I enjoyed the other books in the Inheritance series. Paolini is creative while clearly paying homage to many other fantasy stories.

Customer Review: If you are into this type of ready you enjoy reading the whole series of books. I enjoy the fact that it continues on with what happens after Eragon left off.

Customer Review: If you're reading this review, then you're probably thinking about buying this book (or both books I guess).
