As you may know, the final book of the Inheritance Cycle will be released on the 8th of November. I wanted to make a thread to discuss the book, what will happen and what people think about it. For those who don't know, Inheritance is the 4th book of the Eragon series.
Here are a list of things that have been announced:
- Inheritance will have a green dragon on the cover, nicknamed "Greeni" by fans.
- Inheritance will introduce a new Dragon Rider, and whether this rider fights for The Empire or the Varden is still undetermined.
- There is a chapter called "Brains!" in the book, but there are no zombies in it.
- Murtagh will have a much larger role than he had before.
- The origin of Werecats will be thoroughly explored.
- The remaining prophesies of Angela will be fulfilled, namely:
Eragon's vision of him and another leaving Alagaësia forever with their dragons.
- The Rock of Kuthian and the Vault of Souls will be revealed.
- Eragon will have an "epic romance" ("I cannot say if this passion will end happily, but your love is of noble birth and heritage. She is powerful, wise, and beautiful beyond compare." - Angela, Eragon... it is arguable that this romance/passion has already existed for Arya with a bad ending)
- In the March 2009 Alagaesia.com newsletter by Christopher Paolini revealed that the section he was working on "involves a flaming spear, a duel to the death, magic, elves, and werecats."
- At May 29, 2010, Paolini was in the middle of a section containing "a one-sided game of knucklebones, an evil assassin, bags of flour, a water-born battering ram, streets lined with lead, a knife in the back, and the death of a character."
- A new kind of creature will appear.
- New important characters are, amongst others:
Lord Bradburn, a nobleman
Grimrr Halfpaw, King of Werecats
The following new information was confirmed [8] in an author interview conducted as one-week question and answer session at Random Buzzers:
Paolini finished the book. Furthermore, the book is named and has been since Brisingr was finished, but it is up to the publisher to decide when to release the title. The cover artwork, featuring an emerald dragon, is completed.
- It is likely that Eragon will learn more about the nature of Spirits.
- There are some "interesting bits" with Murtagh.
- The fates of Roran and Nasuada have been greatly changed from the original plan for those characters.
- Eragon's Guide to Alagaësia, mainly the written sections, contains some important hints about what will happen in this book.
- Something related to Brom coming back to life will occur, but perhaps in a way nobody expects.
- Oromis will appear in some way.
- There is "more to Angela than meets the eye" and she will have "several crowning moments of awesomeness."
- The book will reveal the extent and limitations of Eragon's new sword Brisingr to catch fire.
- No more secret Dragon Riders will be discovered.
- The two women blessed by Eragon in Brisingr, "Wolf Eyes" and "Bladesinger" will make an appearance.
- The seven words in the Ancient Language revealed to Eragon by Brom will be addressed, as will Solembum's riddle.
- Undbitr will appear.
- Vanir will appear.
- There may be chapters from Murtagh's point of view.
- There will be an elven death and subsequent burial ceremony.
- Inheritance will introduce a new Dragon Rider, and whether this rider fights for The Empire or the Varden is still undetermined.
- There is a chapter called "Brains!" in the book, but there are no zombies in it.
- Murtagh will have a much larger role than he had before.

I don't know how many people have actually read the books or even care but i felt like discussing the final book of what may happen. Such as who the final rider will be? Which elf will die? Who will Eragon leave with ect...
So anyone else? xd
