Poorly written, badly plotted
With its obvious dependence on the plot twists of other stories, most notably Star Wars, Dune, Dragon Slayer, The Lord of the Rings and The Wheel of Time series, at the conclusion of Brisingr I found myself wondering whether Eldest was actually written by Paolini, or heavily edited by someone who has since moved on. His writing abilities have deteriorated with each installment in the series and I'm rather surprised the publishers went ahead and released Brisingr. Don't waste your money.
not happy
I was informed tht this book was in brand new condition but in fact it was torn on the cover and the last 4 or 5 chapters are offset and not together with the book not happy with this copy at all
Too Much of a World, Not Enough of a Story
Any book I read aloud to my kids ends up being a book that I look at more favorably than I normally would, but I have to admit, after having finished Brisingr, I couldn't help feeling a little cheated. I know Paolini split the final book in his "trilogy" into two books because there was just too much material for one book, but what I've discovered is that as Mr. Paolini matures, he becomes more long-winded and less able to just tell a story. That's too bad, because I have a feeling there's a story to be told, but it seems almost as if the entire thing could be told in a single (admittedly quite long) book.
Descriptive passages are overcooked, extraneous detail is stuffed into the minds of characters, and the author is trying to create too much of a world and not enough of a story, and frankly the world was created in the first book. We get it. Move on.
A somewhat enjoyable read despite my complaints, but if I hadn't been reading it to my son, I would have put it aside after a hundred pages or so and said "good grief, get me the cliff notes."

Product Description
OATHS SWORN . . . loyalties tested . . . forces collide.
Following the colossal battle against the Empire’s warriors on the Burning Plains, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still there is more at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep.
First is Eragon’s oath to his cousin Roran: to help rescue Roran’s beloved, Katrina, from King Galbatorix’s clutches. But Eragon owes his loyalty to others, too. The Varden are in desperate need of his talents and strength—as are the elves and dwarves. When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices— choices that take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice.
Eragon is the greatest hope to rid the land of tyranny. Can this once-simple farm boy unite the rebel forces and defeat the king?
