Inheritance by Christopher Paolini

I have been reading Inheritance by Christopher Paolini. This book is the last of installment of the Eragon series. It is a thrilling adolescent novel that follows the story of Eragon, a young boy who is destined to be a dragon rider and defeat the evil king Gallbatorix. The way that Paolini writes has really mesmerized me as he writes with such attention to detail, one can really lose themselves in the scene and feel as though they are part of the story themselves. It is set in an imaginary land that seems to be of a medieval type of era. In this land there are monsters, elves, dwarves, spell-casters, healers, an evil empire and of course a few dragon riders. The way that Paolini has described these creatures is riveting in the way that he explains every feature. His imagination seems limitless as he writes about great battles and amazing animals  but he is able to bring it back to relate to the reader by writing about everyday occurances in the warriors and village folks lives. The image that is created of the characters really makes the story seem like a possibility in real life even though it is obviously a fantasy novel.

This series is aimed for teenagers however Inheritance is the thickest book of them all and would take dedication to finish, for that reason it seems aimed at people in their late teens but can be enjoyed by people older of course. All in all it is a really good read and I would recommend it to anyone who loves to read fantasy novels.
