I really liked this book. I always get very annoyed when someone sees me with a book about a girl and thinks its a book that girls should read. However this book really made me want to keep reading and the foresahadowin was great. I would like to read other books from this author if I can.

I loved this book. I have probably read it and eragon 7 or 8 times already and plannin to read them a lot more. the first time i read after I finished it I kept thinking about what would happen next in the book and would then remember i was done with. i'd like to know when the 3rd book is coming out. I think it's called Empire.
