Brisingr!, the 748 page sequel to Eldest, by Christopher Paolini, continues Eragon's explosive adventures throughout Alagaesia. After the Varden once again rout King Galbatorix's army, Eragon is sent to the capital of the dwarfs to ensure the election of a Varden-friendly king. After this, Eragon and Saphira journey to Ellesmera to visit their teachers. Galeder gives Eragon and Saphira his Eldunari`, or heart of hearts, so Eragon and Saphira could communicate with him even after his death. Eragon and Saphira then fly to Fenister, a city in the Empire, and help the Varden capture it, while Orimis and Galedr are defeated by Murtagh and Thorn with the help of Galbatorix. This novel is just as much as a page-turner as its prequels.
