Eragon's Guide to Alagaësia (The Inheritance Cycle #guide)
I read this book before I had finished the second book of the series and thus was exposed to some unfortunate spoilers. I didn't realize this at the time, so it was a learning lesson about how to read series and companion books.This book was a good read though and was a fun little break from the thick detailed word and wold of Paolini's main core story.It also helped to broaden and widen the knowledge of the world he created and the creatures that populate and live within it. I could better
OH MY GOD! When I saw this book at Barnes and nobles I almost fainted. I had to have that book. I love how it tells you the duties of dragon riders in Alagaësia and about the different races, places and useful items. If you are a fan of Eragon then you should definitely get this book.
I bought this book for my daughter before she was able to read English on her own, and translated it for her as a gift (the Norwegian publishers have been exceptionally late with translating the series). I would not have bought this book for myself, though I have read the first three books of the Eragon series and quite enjoy them.It's a nice enough companion book to the actual books, aimed at those who love the series, though a higher quality finish of the book would have made it a lot nicer.
Watch out because Eragons Guide to Alagaesia will blow your mind away. I personally loved it and you will to.
I know some people complained that the info given in the book is already known if you have read the series. Some complained about the illustrations. Some complained about the quality of the materials used. BUT I loved the book! It was smart, and very personal. I really felt like i was Rider. An enjoyable read!
Kvetha fricaya!I really enjoyed this books because the Inheritance Cycle is my favorite book saga. There were many fun samples of things you could possibly find in Alagaësia, like Arya's favorite flower, dragon's knuckles (which you can use for telling your fortune) and many more. Each page is filled with information and beautiful illustrations of all the races and, of course, maps.At one point in this book though, it is mentioned that Rhunön would forge you a sword which would not happen

"A dragon who is not free to do as he or she wishes is not a dragon at all." Beautifully illustrated and in-depth, this guide to the world of Alagaësia, narrated and complete with notes by Eragon, is perfect for fans of The Inheritance Cycle. I only wish the length wasn't quite so short!I read this book before I had finished the second book of the series and thus was exposed to some unfortunate spoilers.
