Eragon – Trilogy? Cycle?

So where is the 3rd book? I mean I know it felt like I waited forever for the final Harry Potter but it’s been forever and a day for Inheritance. I’ve got the first two books, I’ve got the movie . . . I just read an article that says it’s not the Inheritance Trilogy anymore, it’s the Inheritance Cycle. It looks like Book 3 will be out in September of 2008 – sheesh that’s still a long ways off!

Okay, now that I know that there is one coming I’d like to ponder the movie a bit. There’s no way they will be able to make Eldest into a movie – Eragon just differed too greatly from the book. Quite a few of the major plot points did not make it into the screenplay. I do have to admit that I really liked Jeremy Irons as Brom and Rachel Weisz as the voice of Saphira. I liked Ed Speleers as Eragon – he’s caught a lot of flak but I enjoyed his performance. I would have liked to have seen a lot more of Chris Egan as Roran. I mean the character has such a large story line in Eragon and then on into Eldest. I think I would have liked the movie more if I hadn’t read the book and didn’t know what all I was missing!

Well, I’ve made my post for today (my instructor didn’t say they had to be brilliant – just that there needed to be a post a day)! *laugh*
