Book Three of the Inheritance Trilogy remains un-named but the absolute release date is September 23, 2008. Another big announcement is that it is no longer the Inheritance Trilogy. It is now called The Inheritance Cycle. Because Christopher Paolini decided on writing a fourth book! I am so excited! Sorry I haven't posted but there wasn't really anything to post about. UNTIL NOW!

Sorry to say, but there are no new reports on Book Three in the Inheritance Trilogy. I hope that all of you have been doing good. I have been extremely busy this summer. I am re-reading Eragon. Surprise, surprise. You all know that I didn't like the movie Eragon because of how they mutalated the strong storyline. But one scene always gets me...the hatching of Saphira, I don't know why I cry. Maybe it's because one of my most beloved story characters can be truely seen coming into the world...only if it seems so for a moment.

But onward we go. Based on Eragon and Eldest how do you think Galbatorix is going to be defeated? I think that something random is going to happen, but that's just me.

 Love Always,

Greetings Everyone! I'm so sorry that it's been so long and you have my humblest apologies! I talked to Christopher Paolini himself and he said that while I wait for the third book I should check out The Alychemist...(so sorry if this is spelled wrong) he said it was one of his utmost favorites. I saw it at the store earlier today but didn't get to pick it up. I looked it up on barnes and nobles website and the outline of the story sounds very interesting! I too have forgotton who it was written by...I'm not very much help tonight am I? haha.

I must go now. I'm going to go watch all the things they did wrong in the movie Eragon and drool over Murtagh. Haha. jk.

Greetings everyone. I thought I'd post something funny.

. . .51 ways to annoy Murtagh

1) Follow him around and keep asking the same stupid question no matter what answer he gives.
2) Follow him around chanting “Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? Murtagh stole the cookie from the cookie jar!”
3) Give him nicknames that are unrelated to his real name. Ex: Paul. Joe. Han Solo. Teddy Bear. Freddie.
4) Ask loudly where babies come from. Keep asking him even if he claims he won’t tell you.
5) On the off chance he gets frustrated enough to tell you where babies come from (previously mentioned on number 4), look offended and claim he’s not taking you seriously.
6) Whenever he’s done saying something s****** and say, “Yeah, like we’ll ever believe that!” very sarcastically.
7) Poke him at random moments, and don’t give him a straight answer as to why you are doing it, either.
8) Laugh at any and all plans he comes up with.
9) Follow him around and tell people that he learned everything he knows from you.
10) Whenever anyone asks you about him say proudly, “We’re all very proud of him- all of us in the insanity response unit, that is- we just got him potty trained, too….”
11) Tell Eragon that Murtagh has a crush on him. Claim that there is hidden poetry in his room if he looks hard enough. Make sure Murtagh hears these claims. His reaction to this news will certainly start quite a few new rumors.
12) Kill, burn, and eat the ashes of his horse.
13) Or, if you’re too compassionate to kill the poor animal, wait till Murtagh is half seated on it, then slap it’s bum and yell ‘giddyup!” If the horse is too well trained to fall for that, run, run fast!
14) Point and laugh at him whenever he passes you.
15) Say bad things about him before he passes out of earshot.
16) Try to get him to start a conga line.
17) Clearly in view, smack yourself on the head with something hard, then throw it by Murtagh and claim loudly that he has wounded you.
18) Kick him in the shins at random moments when he is not looking, then run away.
19) Tell Arya that you heard him say that he expected her to be more pretty when he found out she was an elf.
20) Wake him up early in the early hours of the morning with a bucket of water. Cold water.
21) Put his hand in warm water while he’s sleeping.
22) Cut his hair while he’s sleeping.
23) Take his stuff and hide it.
24) Go up to him and tell him you’ve done something to something in his room. See how long it takes him to work up the nerve to brush his teeth again (in fear you’ve dipped his toothbrush in the toilet (or chamber pot for you eccentrics)).
25) Walk up to him and say, “Man, it feels good to be a hamster…” and walk away with no explanation.
26) Laugh at him in general.
27) Dye his hair rainbow colors by any means possible. See if he screams.
28) Make a comment about how he’s putting on a little ‘poundage’ and see if he still continues to eat regularly.
29) Get him a puppy for Christmas. Claim that since he’s always wanted one, you finally raised the bar, from a hamster to a dog.
30) Get him a Chiwawa as the aforementioned puppy. (An Irish Wolfhound would be a very, very stupid move at this point)
31) Spread outlandish rumors about him. (Ex: Yeah, I’ve heard he’s even dated a queen. Or: I heard that to get out of prison once, the guards made him dress up as a girl and pout.)
32) Show up in his room before he goes to bed with warm milk and a lullaby in mind to help him sleep.
33) Mimic him in an especially childish way whenever he speaks.
34) Ask him why he’s got a stupid horse instead of a dragon. If he ignores you, continue to ask why he isn’t as cool or good-looking as Eragon.
35) See how many rounds of “100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall” he can take before he swears and draws his sword.
36) Claim #35 (above) was you testing his mental endurance. Claim he failed spectacularly.
37) Whenever you discuss Murtagh’s strange behavior around you with others, always refer to him as “she.”
38) Replace all his clothes with dresses (or any other clothes that are obviously intended for a woman). Admittedly, some of the fun is sapped out of the joke because he can always get new clothes, but it will still be entertaining to watch him try to explain his predicament to the tailor.
39) Replace all his weapons with hand made replicas you made with construction paper and glue, maybe even with tape (to give it a shinier look!).
40) Scream the name “FRODO!” at him and then look disappointed when he doesn’t react. When he asks what a “Frodo” is, refuse to tell him because he didn’t recognize his “Sam”.
41) Tell him, “The cat crows at dawn and the horse screams at noon,” and see how he reacts to this little bit of randomness.
42) After you’ve finished telling him something, you must add (no matter what!) “But it’s just a rumor. (Ex: Eragon told me to tell you that you guys are leaving tomorrow, but it’s just a rumor.)
43) Tell him you’re leaving to see if he cries out of sheer joy.
44) See if he attempts to be polite about you saying you’re leaving (#43-above) and tries to say something like too bad, or, I’ll miss you, or, You simply must write, or, Send me a postcard!
45) Make up his own theme song and sing it whenever he enters the room, or triumphs, or walks, or eats, or something, anything at all…
46) (In relation to #45) When he threatens to cut out your tongue if you continue to sing his theme song, smile say, “Oh all right,” and begin to hum it.
47) Offer him gum from one of those trick packs (you know, the ones that shock you or snap your fingers with a mini mousetrap).
48) Play knock and run at his bedroom door. When he inevitably refuses to answer, open the door, step in and holler “Lucy! I’m hooomme!”
49) Scream “You dropped your pocket!” whenever he’s fighting on the practice courts.
50) (In relation to #49) Give him your best, plastic-fake, commercial, poster-boy smile and say “Great job you did on the practice courts today, even though you got hit on the head twice. Oh, by the way, you dropped your pocket.”
51) (In relation to everything on this list) When he tries to attack you and must be forcefully restrained, sigh and say, “I always said he was insane. I’ve known it for years,” even if you’ve only met him last month.

Haha. Anyways...I hope everyone has been doing well!

Well today I went to go see Eragon again! When I saw it this time I was less critical, and I started noticing bits and pieces that I didn't see the first time. Durza did slice Eragon's back but it doesn't make it a big deal. The characters were a lot like Paolini's, Eragon was cockey and Saphira was protective of her Rider etc. Like my Mom said, even though some things were different and a few characters weren't in it- it still made a great story. And it did, I think sometimes directors have to change things so that it'll all fit in at the same time like, intorducing Murtagh-rescuing Arya and Brom being killed is all within one scene, thus cutting time. Anyways, I'm pretty stuck right now- I don't know what part of the Inheritance Trilogy to talk about so if you have any ideas what you need more understanding on please leave a comment and let me know!

Paolini:That is one of the mysteries that will be resolved in Book III. Trust me, there is a reason!

Question: How did you come up with the magic system for the book? Why did you decide to make it physically drain magic users?

Paolini: I put a lot of thought into creating my system of magic, of finding a balance between magical powers and their limitations. Unconstrained, a magician would be all-powerful and unstoppable. I decided that linking magic use with a person's physical strength was a good way to limit power. In general, the Riders' abilities evolved as I wrote the story and thought about what they would need to do their jobs and survive in Alagaësia.

Is the Dragon whose name cannot be spoken in any language Eragon the First’s Dragon? Or a different one?

Question: I ask this because Brom tells Eragon Shadeslayer the name of Eragon the First’s dragon, Bid’Daum, when answering all the questions about dragon history in the first book. However, later no one says the dragon’s name and it is implied (at least in my mind) that the Dragon who sealed the deal (who’s name cannot be said) and Bid’Daum are one and the same. I'm a bit confued over this.

  Eragon Shadeslayer

Eragon 
Race: Dragon Rider
Location: B1: Carvahall, later Farthen Dúr. B2: Farthen Dúr, then Ellesméra, and finally Surda.
Eragon was a poor farm boy who barely could feed his uncle and cousin. When out in the Spine, he discovered a stone that later hatched a sapphire dragon. The Stone brought on the Raz'ac and destroyed Eragons farm, and killed his uncle Garrow. He fled Carvahall with Brom, learning the ways of magic as he went, chasing after the Raz'ac. Eragon travelled Alagaesia hunting the Raz'ac, and eventually found himself fleeing with an unconscious Elf, an exiled warrior to the Varden. While in the Varden, he participated in the battle for Farthen Dúr and slew Durza the Shade, and cast the Urgal armies into disarray.

B2: After the battle, Eragon travelled to Tarnag, then to Hedearth, and then into Du Weldenvarden. Eragon trained in Ellesmera with his master, Oromis, and his dragon, Glaedr. When the need was dire, Eragon further travelled across the Hadarac Desert to Surda, where he battled on the Burning Plains for the future of Alagaesia.

Quotes From Eragon

What wisdom can I give people that they haven’t already learned? What feats can I achieve that an army couldn’t do better? It’s insanity! - Eragon to Saphira (pg. 429)

"Whether you serve Shade, Urgal or some twisted fiend I've not heard of, I have no wish to parley with him." - Eragon (pg. 232)

My heart died a while back. - Eragon (pg. 283)

"Keep your offer and tell your master that crows can eat his entrails for all I care!" - Eragon (pg. 232)
