This is a strong addition to Paolini‘s books. I found it compelling, and would never describe it as predictable. Paolini‘s writing continues to struggle with when provide more detail, and when to provide less, lending our understanding of the setting to be limited at times and hampering the pace. Overall, however, I quite enjoyed the book, especially the unpredictability.
