After completing Eldest by Christopher Paolini, I began to read Brisingr, the third book in the Inheritance series. I am finding this book to show more maturity than the two previous books. Of course, the author, who was 15 years old when he wrote the first book, Eragon, is now in his mid-twenties and has grown as a writer. The story is not only engaging, but also, exciting. As I read, I find myself comparing it to Lord of the Rings and Star Wars--many similarities, but yet different. I can't wait to see how the story unfolds!
