Tales from Alagaesia #1 was a trip down memory lane. Well known and beloved characters appeared, but this installment was not something that added much to the story of Eragon and the new empire that was enstablished after the final book of the tetralogy. However, it created some questions about what's next. Will there be another book? Hopefully yes.

As for this short stories from Alagaesia, of course a tetralogy like Eragon could not not have an extra under 200 pages! The first tale was pretty great, deeping the reader straight into the world of dragons and dragonriders. It also left some new mysteries unsolved, so I'm looking forward to the continuation of the series.

The second story was just okay, a bit more playful and mysterious, but nothing special. And, as for the third one, it was a bit boring, to be honest.

So, overall, I almost enjoyed this book, but it did make me want to re read the series. So, two out of five stars.
