What is up with all the dragon fantasy books being so slow. Murtagh drags forever to get the story across. A literal third of the book is just the main character being mind-controlled and drugged. There was no brevity in this book. I get that Paolini probably wanted the reader to empathize with the characters. And It did. This book made me sad a depressed. I didn't want to go on...reading the book that is.
I like the characters though, I like the world. I truly loved Eragon and Eldest, but the bloat is harming these books.
