I have been rereading but I got about two chapters or so in, and realized I had never read this last book of the Inheritance Series. This was utterly brilliant.
I typically try to not bring spoilers into my reviews but I cannot leave any praise unsaid.
I did not expect this book to completely touch up and resolve EVERYTHING! I cried at so many points feeling excited, worried, and even at peace as a reader seeing what I had hoped of being written. It is the correct ending for the storyline but not by any means the "good" ending or a "bad" ending. To start, I was shocked how much was left after the huge peak with Eragon and Galbatorix. The unexpected twist to how he was defeated perfectly is in line with Eragon's humanity. Finally getting to show someone who has caused chaos and havoc what they have done. I also now get why Murtagh was such a mysterious but well invested character (referring to the interview with Christopher at the end of the audio version considering he was already planning the book he had just published).
THE OTHER DRAGON EVENTUALLY HATCHED! I had kind of figured but the way it was done was cool. Arya becoming a Rider was bound to be, or some form of right hand to the Riders, but to have it be that last egg that was under Galbatorix was mind blowing. Especially after she was such a big part of the salvaging of Saphira's egg.
The dragon relationships and connections with the multiple races is done so well. I was proud to see how Eragon had learned to be better with those different from himself and those he had been taught to hate for years. The personalities of characters with their star points and flaws reflects how Christopher does justice to people, of all genders/races, and to creatures alike.
I absolutely loved this book and would highly recommend reading the series. Enjoying the main character AND side characters is rare in my opinion and Christopher really put out a wonderful fantasy.

I can’t believe I can finally say I finished this series. I have have been reading it since 2018 and finally finished in 2022.
Eragon is still only like 19 by the end of the series. He shouldn’t be a world leader, he should be at the club
