This week's teaser comes from

"Tears blurred Eragon's vision and he tried to look away, but the dead faces held his attention. He stared at their open eyes and wondered how life could have left them so easily. What does our existence mean when it can end like this? A wave of hopelessness overwhelmed him."

I received the 4 books from this series as a birthday/x-mas gift from a good friend of mine. It's about time I tackled them :). So far I am really enjoy it, it's darker moments surprised me, it's a little more mature than I thought it would be, but that is not a bad thing! Looking forward to finishing this book and moving on to the next ones!

  2. I enjoyed the Eragon series. They are just sooo hard for me to get through. I know the first three books in the series each took me about 2 weeks to get through and thats a lot for me. But they are good and SO much happens in them. I have the forth one on my shelf waiting to be read, but I just haven't mustered up the will to read it yet. I pre-ordered it and have had it since it released in Nov. of last year. So for about 6 months. I may or may not read it by the end of the year. I guess we will see. I hope you enjoy them all.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. Returning some of the love.
