Review by joshgreen12 (2009-05-29)
I was excited to read this book, but it seemed to be overladen with adjectives and redundancy. The romantic parts are fleeting. The mindset of Eragon is still childish. But the story is still interesting. The author has introduced some new aspects in the dragon lore that were interesting. The next book should be promising.

(This review refers to the 2008 version titled “Brisingr”)
