| I don't really think so. Most of the time that they were traveling there was stuff going on, such as Brom tutoring (*cough*his son*cough*) Eragon, which is interesting. I never got bored during the book. | |

| Hehe you wont give up till its proven will you I really hope Brom isnt Eragons father and hope he is to be honest. Dont - because he is dead and that will drive Eragon mad and start to question Broms motives for not telling Eragon. Do - because it would be sooooo cool if he was and it would be better than Morzan being Eragons father. | |

| I think the structure was a very good way to introduce characters, background, and many elements of the world of Alegasia which made it a very more "real" (couldn't think of a better word) world. | |

| Yes, I think that everything was great, and he dropped several subtle hints on several things in the future (*cough*suchasBromisEragon'sfather*cough*). | |

| No, he hints that Eragon has an unhealthy crush on a older woman who will never love him. Also, she is such a Mary Sue. Eragon, as the hero, couldn't end up with a Marry Sue. I mean she's just so discustingly PERFECT. She's very powerfull with magic, she's great with a sword, and of course she is oh so beautiful. AND TO TOP IT OFF SHE'S A PRINCESS. This isn't happy fairy gumdrop land, son. | |

| I loved it! I thought it had a decent structure, though I wasn't a huge fan of the traveling. But I don't see any way CP could have chaged that! So I still love it, besides it's not like there wasn't like anything wasn't going on during the travel*coughFuturewife/longlostdadcough* | |

| I loved the structure. In fact, I thought that that was one of the great things about the book that Eldest lacked. I found myself bored when there were long pauses in traveling in Eragon (not that bored of course, just as 'bored' as you can get with Inheritance!). The only time I'm not bored when there isn't traveling is when there is action, new character relationships moving forward, and training! I absolutely love training! Especially magic training...although some people don't like that (hard to believe). Oh, and it seems as if a lot of you are sick...the amount of coughing is incredible ! Is something going around? | |
