I listened to the talking book of Eragon (rented it from bookstore)! Loved it & now I've got the paperback. Can hardly wait for the sequel to come out this summer. The young man who wrote it is extremely talented! Mineralady!

I just read the Hall of Fire, Eru, and I think it's a good chapter, although it seems to slow the story down for me a bit, but I don't mind, it makes sense where it is in the book. What I liked the most about it is the sense of "royalty" that the High Elves have about them. I say regal, for want of a better word. elanor
