For what it is, its a decent conclusion to the series. I enjoyed it, but im happy its over. Its more polished than the previous books, but here and there it felt as if the author was trying too hard.

So far this is the book I enjoyed the most of the inheritance cycle. It's difficult to pinpoint exactly why that is though. I think the story now unfolds in a much more established world, which means it doesn't need to spoonfeed worldbuilding as much as its predecessor. Story arcs were interwoven more elegantly. Im happy I decided to continue with the series.

I didn't like Eldest as much as I did Eregon. It's still a decent story, with interesting characters and lore. Overall it's alright, but there were times that I was rolling my eyes and considering putting it away. It's hard to say what it exactly was, but I think that this book tried to explain too much. A large part is dedicated to Eragon's education, and of course that is important to the story, but it just seemed to go on and on. This was also apparent in other parts, and the 'big plot twist' wasn't really surprising at all. I think the last thing that I wasn't too enthusiastic about is the prominent role magic plays. That's a very personal opinion, but to me this comes across a bit lazy, everything is solved with magic! Hurrah!
