Summary
Winner, IRA Young Adult Choices, 2010
Don’t miss the eagerly anticipated epic new fantasy from Christopher Paolini—Murtagh, coming 11.7.23!
The Empire is at war and the stakes have never been higher in Book Three of the Inheritance Cycle, perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings! This New York Times bestselling series has sold over 40 million copies and is an international fantasy sensation.
"Christopher Paolini is a true rarity."—The Washington Post
Oaths sworn . . . loyalties tested . . . forces collide... 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? Following the colossal battle against the Empire's warriors, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still, there is more adventure 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.
When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices—choices that will take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice.

Faster please
You should listen to it at a faster speed than is set, Paolini writes a lot, some of which is a passing pleasure, and Doyle reads at a very slow pace, so you will get very bored very quickly.

Great book
Would you listen to Brisingr again? Why?
This is the second time I have listened to the series, it is very well read so I find I a joy to listen to it while out and about. As the story unfolds before you, you feel like you are along side the characters in the plights as you are transported in to their world by Christopher Paolini's words

Brilliant set of books.
Brilliant set of books, I loved every minute of them. Gérard Doyle is so emotive and engaging. I don't think I'll ever tire of listening to him read.
The story grips you and the promise of adventure keeps you hooked. I can't recommend this series strongly enough.

Paolini- A Born Storyteller
Where does Brisingr rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Very high! I found the story to be so captivating!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Safera. Easily! You can't beat a dragon.
Have you listened to any of Gerard Doyle’s other performances? How does this one compare?
He is a very good narrator. Would recommend him.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
If I would have yes, but it's obviously very long!

Love this series
This book and the whole series narrated by Gerrard Doyle is beautifully written and narrated. These books are rich with detail and twisting turning plot. I almost didn’t read them because of people commenting about the annoying dragons voices, I found them appropriate myself. Definitely the sort of books that I will love to read again to absorb more and more detail. Superb work thank you!! What great value for money too!

Another long and detailed book
Yet again I slogged through an Inheritance book, wishing I'd downloaded an abridged version. In places I just wanted to move the story along a bit faster. But overall still good, just be patient when listening to it.

Well spoken
Paolini has brought us a magical world, and Doyle has brought it to life. He has a good speaking voice and gives each of the characters individuality and strength however small their part.

Very good series
I read the first two books of the series 6 years ago and liked them, but since the series was not complete then and I don't like reading a volume every 2-3 years, when I no longer remember the details, I waited for the last two to be out and then started again with the first volume. I'm just about to finish the last one and... no matter how it will end, I already know I love this series and I will read it again several times in years to come.
I love the way the dragons are portrayed, I love the world the author created, I wish I could visit and meet all the characters... Someone mentioned their child loved it. Well... I'm 35 and I loved it :) I would venture to say they are not for children, though. Teens, yes, but they are scenes of cruelty and torture and... that's not for children.
These are serious books, very well written. Wisely written, I would say, since they really contain lots of wisdom, in nuggets and... spread throughout. Buy and enjoy, they are well worth your credits!
