Eldest

After some weeks of reading this, I finally have finished this book. A very long book it is. I wonder what’s up with Paolini, writing such long novels. Anyways, Eldest is the second installment of the Inheritance Cycle of Christopher Paolini.

Actually, I really like it. Like I like it like it. Even though there’s not much action as Eragon, the story I have been looking for for a very long time(since when I’m reading Magician: Apprentice of Raymond Feist) is here. All the magic stuffs and real dragon things are here. I totally love this book. The shocking revelations and the fateful meetings… all in the same book is giving me a heart attack. Damn you Paolini.

I don’t plan on reading the third installment, Brisingr, just yet because I might end up begging Paolini to hurry up writing, editing and publishing the last book, and I don’t want that to happen. Ha ha.

After finishing Eldest, I realized that the Eragon movie is so lacking… I wonder how they are going to continue making the movie of the rest of the Cycle. The cool and exciting parts will be omitted and that sucks! I guess it’s best to watch it in the perspective of someone who has not yet read the book.

I will rate this book 9/10.
