I figured I'd make a thread here to sum up the news we've been posting on Shur'tugal lately regarding the two new installments to the Inheritance cycle.

Brisingr Deluxe Edition

First off, the Deluxe Edition of Brisingr released in October. It contains some deleted scenes, a great guide to dwarven runes, a drawing of Galbatorix (done by Christopher Paolini), and a painting of the Lethrblaka (done by John Jude Palancar).

I reviewed the book (including a summary of contents but no spoilers) on Shur'tugal the day it released. You can read that review here: http://shurtugal.com/?news=711

If interested, you can buy the Brisingr DE through Amazon for cheap (you save over $10 on it) and support Shur'tugal at the same time through this link: http://www.amazon.co...ASIN=0375854819

Eragon's Guide to Alagaesia

My personal favorite of the two new books is Eragon's Guide to Alagaesia, the first installment in the Inheritance cycle written by Christopher Paolini that isn't actually one of the four books. The book was put together by a company known for making "-ology" books, like "Dragonology". It's a 16 spread visual guide to Alagaesia written by Christopher Paolini and narrated by Eragon Shadeslayer. The book is supposed to be a culmination of notes, instructions, drawings, diagrams, and fairths Eragon has collected on his journey throughout Alagaesia given to new Riders (the reader) to help them in their training.

I put together a full list of what to expect from the book as well as a review on Shur'tugal earlier today. There's an incredibly amount of amazing artwork in this book. I've said it a few times now and I'll say it again - the best way to describe this book is that it's everything the Eragon movie should have been.

You can read the review/summary of content here on Shur'tugal: http://shurtugal.com/?news=714

If you want an actual look at the book's insides, we have an exclusive "sneak peek" at Eragon's Guide to Alagaesia over on Shur'tugal: http://shurtugal.com/?news=713

If interested, you can buy Eragon's Guide to Alagaesia through Amazon for cheap (you save over $8 on it) and support Shur'tugal at the same time through this link: http://www.amazon.co...ASIN=0375858237

We're also giving away five autographed copies of each book on Shur'tugal starting tomorrow! Check out the website for more information.

I can not wait to by Eragon's Guide to Aglaesia. The book looks so good. Probably it will hold clues to what will happen in book 4. By the way, is the name for the book released yet?

It's all about posting in a thread before too many people post in it.

They won't be announced for privacy reasons. They're contacted privately via email.

I believe you should contact Mike via PM (Personal Message) rather then post that here. You could possibly give out your personal information.

No worries, you didn't reveal any personal information. I've asked Bob to look into this.
