plantfriend 's review for:

The Fork, the Witch, and the Worm by Christopher Paolini
2.0

I am bound by nostalgia to read anything Christopher Paolini writes, unfortunately. None of these stories were particularly interesting. The first one featured my favorite character of the whole series and I wish he didn't appear at all. The second one featured my least favorite characters of the whole series and I wish it weren't written. The third featured new characters and basically nothing I cared about at all.

Inheritance ended on a high note, with hints that Queen Nasuada would herself become an autocrat and introduce modern capitalism to Alagaesia. Unfortunately the single digit number of times she was mentioned were the best part of these stories, which nostalgia compelled me to read.
