Inheritance Cycle

For you who love to read these books, you already know how brilliant they are. Yeah, I know that the idea is general (many author already wrote books about dragons and dragon rider), not original world like Harry Potter. But, you will love the details. The story is about Eragon, a young boy who becomes the first of a new order of Dragon Riders. And with Saphira, his dragon, they try to defeat and subvert power of Galbatorix, the evil King of Alagaësia. In the attempt, he met many different races and creatures, such as Elves, Dwaves, Urgals, Shades, Ra’zac, Werecats, etc. Some are allies, some are enemies.

Christopher Paolini originally planned it to be a trilogy, but then become a cycle. While waiting for the last book, fans discussed and speculated many things (such as who will be the next Dragon Rider, the Rock of Kuthian, Murtagh’s fate, Saphira’s mate, the Seven Words in Ancient Language, etc.), which are really fun. Many readers can’t wait for the realease of the last Book (some are tired of waiting because we didn’t even know the title, haha..). But in March 23, 2011 (finally), they announced the cover and of course the title. The book named ‘Inheritance’ from the name of the cycle, which is unpredictable. The illustration describes the beautiful Greenie (the upcoming Green Dragon). And the realease date will be in November 8, 2011 (Yippie!). But, for the translated version in other than English, you have to wait few more months.

It's brilliantly written, I think. I really love these books, and really can't wait for the last one! One of the reason is The new Dragon will be Green ^_^ (yeay, my favorite color!).

Shiver

Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater [red:stivoter] is the first book of 'The Wolves of Mercy Falls' trilogy. Ah,, this book is beautifully written. Here is the synopsis...

For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human... until the cold makes him shift back again.
Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human—or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

It's beautiful/sad love story between Sam [Roth] & Grace [Brisbane]. When I read fictions, I usually love male character rather than the female. But this makes me fall for Grace's character. She is independent, clever, and assertive in a good way. Also Isabel's [Culpeper], she's described as blond, rich, and sarcastic (that can destroy anyone, LOL) in the beginning of the book, but the character's developed to clever (in unbelievably way) and not let the grief go on.

The other characters are Olivia [Marx] and Rachel (Grace's bestfriends), Jack [Culpeper] (Isabel's brother), Beck (Sam's guardian), Shelby, Paul, Ulrich, and Salem.

Well, if you like romance and werewolves thing, you will love this book.
