About this listen
Winner, IRA Young Adult Choices, 2010
Don’t miss the eagerly anticipated epic new fantasy from Christopher Paolini—Murtagh, coming 11.7.23!
The Empire is at war and the stakes have never been higher in Book Three of the Inheritance Cycle, perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings! This New York Times bestselling series has sold over 40 million copies and is an international fantasy sensation.
"Christopher Paolini is a true rarity."—The Washington Post
Oaths sworn . . . loyalties tested . . . forces collide... Eragon is the greatest hope to rid the land of tyranny. Can this once simple farm boy unite the rebel forces and defeat the king? Following the colossal battle against the Empire's warriors, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still, there is more adventure at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep.
When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices—choices that will take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 250
During a routine survey mission on an uncolonized planet, Kira finds an alien relic. At first she's delighted, but elation turns to terror when the ancient dust around her begins to move. As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation. First contact isn't at all what she imagined, and events push her to the very limits of what it means to be human. While Kira faces her own horrors, Earth and its colonies stand upon the brink of annihilation. Now, Kira might be humanity's greatest and final hope....

Story5 out of 5 stars 5
Dragons once soared in the skies, but that was before the Transformation, before they took human form. Now, demonic forces stand to obliterate them. When left mortally wounded, Darnuir, the Prince of Dragons, can only be saved through a dangerous rebirthing spell. He is left as a babe in human hands. Twenty years later, Darnuir is of age to wield the Dragon's Blade. As the last member of his bloodline, he is the only one who can. He is plunged into a role he is not prepared for, to lead a people he does not know.

Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster and tries to kill him? Of course, no one believes Percy about the monster incident; he's not even sure he believes himself.

Enthralling Story Leaving Me Wanting More
The narrator is for the most part quite good, however with some of the characters, and especially with some of Eragons lines, he can get pretty cringy.
The story was excellent. There were many memorable scenes such as the dwarf women, the minoa tree, and gladyr vs thorn. Eragon actually comes across now as being a powerful figure, almost a demi superhero, but the shadow of galbatorixs power is always far larger.
The most disappointing part for me is that when we first hear Galbatorix talk he comes across as a changed man from when he destroyed the riders, and I thought that was a pretty interesting development, but then jokes, it turns out he is still your run of the mill tyrant.

Perfect Series
Perfect. There's no way else to explain this.. it's trumps every other story, and I'm just craving more and more. Gerard Doyle is a MASTER at narrating. It's going to be hard to listen to any other narrator after him. I would spend $100's to read more from this story and I can't wait to re listen to it all again. Thank you both for such an amazing experience. 5 Stars all the way around
