I quite liked it. But i haven't read anything from the eragon world since it came out and then i was pretty young. I liked it then but i dont know how it holds up. I liked that he is a powerful character but not the over powered caracter Eragon would have been at this point which gives it real stakes like it could all go wrong. The ending to be honest suprised me (dont wanna spoil) but either it is a litte out of the blue or there were details in the original series i overread/ have forgotten. All in all, i liked it but maybe there are nostalgic reasons playing into it :). Would like to hear your opinion when you decide to read it.
