auch das dritte Band der Inheritance Reihe ist unglaublich gut gelungen. Ich habe alle drei Bücher regelrecht verschlungen. Leider ist das vierte Buch noch nicht fertig geschrieben und es ist eine unglaubliche Qual warten zu müssen um zu erfahren wie es weiter geht. Am Besten gefällt mir auch in Band 3 die Art und Weise wie Paolini die Geschichte beschreibt, er hat wirklich ein Händchen dafür den Leser an das Buch zu fesseln. Die Geschichte ist nachvollziebar und wirklich gut erzählt. Ich kann es kaum erwarten Band 4 in den Händen zu halten!!!

I really love this story and this world overall. Eragon’s journey keeps a steady pace and it’s really cool to watch him grow up and learn so many valuable lessons. Not just to be a good dragon rider but also to be a good person. In this book we have quite a few war scenes more and I enjoyed reading about them, as we (through Nasuada) also get to see all the strategizing and planning and difficult decision making that come with leading an army. It reads VERY authentic and it had me swallow hard at some conclusions, declarations and orders. This truly is a very grey area. I know which side to be on, but it doesn’t make them killing others (quite brutally too, sometimes) any easier to take. Two wrongs never make a right. As much as I enjoyed a lot of things, this third book probably could have been 300 pages shorter and it would have been just as elaborate. There’s just waaaayyy to many scenes and details that aren’t really needed in my opinion - but maybe that’s because it’s a re-read and I know most of story arc already. I know it’s Fantasy, and I know that that is (or was, not sure if he still writes that way) just his style of writing, but some scenes didn’t need to be as detailed as they were. Plus, I think book no. 3 would have benefitted from a chapter at the start with the info on what happened so far. There were so many things in there that were rehashed throughout the book that were already explained in the first two books. As I’m reading them back to back it’s more annoying than helpful the way it would maybe be, if I was to wait longer for the next book in the series. Ergo, a chapter in the beginning would be perfect as one could read it or skip it. Nevertheless, I’m so happy about this re-read and I’m looking forward to book no. 4 to see how Eragon manages to defeat Galbatorix – one of the many things I can’t remember which makes this whole experience so much better
