	Jonathan Stroud 1. Queezle - Her name doesn't come from anywhere, I don't think. I just made it up! It was kind of meant to make her sound nice. I feel a bit sorry that I killed her off so fast; she is an interesting character. Falling in love is not at all the most stupid thing that people do — but gravitation cannot be held responsible for it.

Started with E & had 6 letters. All I know is that the cover would probably be green in colour (cause the 3rd book was to be green-CP said that). So mostly, the last dragon will be green.

Golem Posts: 2,477 Group: Magicians Member #6,967 Joined: May 9, 2008 Gender: Female Display latest blog link: Yes Favourite Book: Small Favour - Jim Butcher	Few comments on the interview: Interview ...is it possible that Eragons Character, what defines him allows him to help the Dragons work their magic? by that I mean, somehow, does something about him help the Dragons - inspire if you will - to use their magic, when they would otherwise be unable to? Is Eragon a catalyst that helps the dragons to use magic? Interesting question. . . .Very interesting. Yup. . . . Mmh. . . . Very interesting. Can’t say though. Nope. That would be telling. So that means "Yes, Eragon is more Stuish than was previously thought?" Interview Dragons like symmetry and balance, and they have a strong sense of poetic justice. Choosing the son of the first Forsworn (Morzan) and the son of Morzan's greatest enemy (Brom) would have appealed to them a great deal. Fetuses have a strong sense of poetic justice? And a shared conciousness, apparently? Interview Because, whatever else you might say about him, Murtagh, didn't willingly choose to serve Galbatorix. Is it just me, or does Paolini hate that character for no reason at all? Other than what Galbatorix has made him do, he's not an evil character. Interview Ah, this is something that I actually discussed in Brisingr, but the section got cut during the editing process. He has an editing process? I don't know whether I need to be happy or sad about that...

Is it just me, or does Paolini hate that character for no reason at all? Other than what Galbatorix has made him do, he's not an evil character. IIRC, Paolini was extremely surprised that Murtagh turned out to be one of the most popular characters. He was expecting his self insert Eragon to win. And like Stephenie Meyer, characters with good potential always have to be screwed over somehow. Because their precious widdle self-inserts must always be in the spotlight. Meh, I'm hoping Galby will pwn Eragon and reveal that Eragon is actually the baddie. Then Eragon can migrate in shame. Actually, I'm hoping Paolini tells us the entire series is a parody.
