Is anyone getting 'Brisingr', the third book in the Inheritance cycle? (sequel to Eragon & Eldest)

Can't wait 'til it is released on 21 September! (well, in Australia anyway). I'm interested in seeing if the dragon, Saphira, gets to find a suitable mate, and what happens to Murtagh. Is anyone else getting the book?

Stormy · Aug 04, 2008 2:01 AM

[sub]I'm going to read it. Probably not the day it's released, as I don't have copies of the other books anyway, but I'm still pretty excited.

In the meantime, I should probably reread the first two so I can remember what happened.... [/sub]

SpiritofCynder · Aug 04, 2008 2:32 AM

Heck yes Im going to get he book

Syler Bladewing · Aug 04, 2008 4:47 AM

Darn Right I'm reading this!

Phoenix_Flyer · Aug 04, 2008 9:25 PM

Yep, I definately am. I have the first two and have read and re-read them a couple of times.

A Guy · Aug 04, 2008 9:30 PM

I'm going to wait for my dad to take me to Barnes & Nobles.

(Screw the law, not allowing me to work because my birthday is 6 DAYS after July 1st.

I thought it was going to be called Glaedr, but yeah, I'm getting it. I've gotta reread the first two though, it's been so long... Brisingr, isn't that the name of Eragon's sword? I can't remember.

The name of his sword was Zar'roc.

In the books, Brisingr is a magic word for fire, IIRC...

Phoenix_Flyer · Aug 05, 2008 4:31 PM

It is also the first magic word that Eragon spoke, and the first one he used to weild magic. The word means a lot to Eragon really.

Martial Arts Spyro · Aug 05, 2008 5:04 PM

I am!!! I still gotta finish eldest.

Spyro_fan55 · Aug 05, 2008 5:34 PM

Yeah I was gonna get it... I just never got through the 2nd one cuz I got bored.

Phoenix_Flyer · Aug 05, 2008 5:49 PM

Yeah, the training is a bit boring. But the fight at the end is good and reveals some surprising secrets. But I won't tell you here.

Spyro_fan55 · Aug 05, 2008 5:53 PM

Thanks for the heads up ^^

Fletch_Talon · Aug 06, 2008 9:58 AM

ill get it of course but what im happy about is that whilst it was originally going to be a trilogy, its since been extended

im not gonna argue against that

Blaze the Dragon · Aug 06, 2008 12:53 PM

Of course I'm going to get it! Despite what some people say about it being a complete rip-off of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, etc. it's not. It uses some things, but come on, since when do authors always come up with original ideas for everything that happens in the book? They always use something from previous authors, titles, etc. But yes, I'm definitely going to get Brisingr.

It amazes me how World of Warcraft takes many ideas from Lord of the Rings, yet people aren't saying "z0MG! WoW RIPPED OFF OF LOTR!!!!!!!!!1111111SHIFTONEONEONEONEONE

Lancer232 · Aug 06, 2008 1:14 PM

No doubt about it, I'm gonna get it, I've already read the other two, but I might re-read them to refresh my memory.

Paranoia · Aug 06, 2008 1:30 PM

I really liked the first book, but when I read the second, I couldn't really stay interested. All the different names in that language just started molding together, and I forgot what they were talking about.

Eldest was a little confusing, I had to keep going back and looking up all these weird names and stuff...

Oh, yeah.

Oh, I remember now! Thanks guys. I'm looking forward toward the next book. I am so pumped. As much as I was waiting for the seventh and final Harry Potter book. And I am actually twice as excited as I should be. I am now waiting for Brisingr, and the third book to the Inkheart trilogy, which I believe is called Inkdeath. If I'm wrong about the name of the final book, someone tell me.

WoW like most fantasy RPGs "borrows" a lot from LoTR and DnD, pretty much all fantasy uses concepts which originated from Tolkien's works

WoW however parodies more than it "rips off" ive been told about the whole inheritance/star wars similarities, and i can admit they have a point, however just because the main theme of the story isnt original doesnt mean its not a good book.

Thundersoul · Aug 07, 2008 9:31 AM

I have it Ordered, I've got the Hard Covers of the first two, Great books. I want too know the ending so badly sad

youll be waiting a long time for that

and i wouldnt wish to hard for an ending, cuz once its finished... well its finished, like harry potter, its good and bad

Phoenix_Flyer · Aug 07, 2008 3:26 PM

You'll have to wait a VERY long time Thundersoul...... Since its been extended to a trilogy Christopher Paolini has another book to write. And I doubt he will start doing that until all of his tour etc for Brisingr are finished.

SpyroandCynder4EVAH · Aug 10, 2008 3:31 AM

I have Eragon and Eldest. I'm getting the third Yay!!!

birdy-stover · Aug 13, 2008 9:49 AM

OMG!!!
I'm so excited for Brisingr!!!! I've read the first two books so many times!!! Now, though I sometimes skip the training to the Roran chapters since I know what happens anyway.

I really want to know what happens with Eargon and Arya!!! Was anyone else completly saddened when Arya says they cannot be together!!!!???
