Ahh... The Inheritance Trilogy... Such a good series...

Anyway, I have recently been re-reading the first two books of the Inheritance Trilogy. Some may not know what this series is. I will give you a hint-- The first book is titled, Eragon. Also, it is isn't a trilogy anymore but a series.

I would like to know your thoughts about this series (likes/dislikes, etc.) I think this would bring up a great discussion.

The movie totally screwed with the series. Anyway isn't it odd thought the first 2 books had titles that had six letters and started with e so everyone thought it would be empire. But they named it brisingr?!
Otherwise the books are good and interesting.

No, it's just an idea. Because he is going to need to do something with the relationship no matter what.

Yeah the movie screwed everything up. They won't make a sequel with that.

Yeah, when I saw that there was a movie I was really happy. I even bought the game though it wasn't that good mostly like lord of the rings. Then I saw the movie and I was like nooooooooooooo this is the worst thing ever.

I know. You need atleast 3 hours of film to properly reproduce a movie about Eragon.

i can see the game being different cuz they need to have constant fighting, and it was fun, but yeah i'm not sure its possible to make a movie as good as any book

I haven't either. I want to though.

Also another good series of movies for books is the Bourne Series.
