Review by Chance Norton

Brisingr by Christopher Paolini 3/5 Stars

Brisingr is an engaging book and a decent addition to this popular series but is not of quite the same quality as the first two. While having plenty of action, elements of the romance seen in the first two book, and also new pieces to the plot, the book has a feel of being a setup for the final book, and not a stand alone interesting read. In other words, this is a book that will never be the favorite of the series for anyone who reads it.
All in all I would give this book a 3 of 5 stars, for its interesting plot fillers but also its unnecessary dragging out of the story. This series could have been completed in three books like was originally planned but was possibly drawn out to produce more money.
