Brisingr by Chistopher Paolini

Another in an unputdownable series that along with Paver I eagerly await each new one and devour when I do get it. Brisingr was supposed to be the third in Paolini's Inheritance trilogy, which has now become four books because it didn't all fit into the first three. Brisingr is a big book, both physically and in terms of its writing and scope, epic, soaring, beautiful and well written, a new world without resorting to tired rehashig of Tolkien's Middle Earth, Lewis' Narnia or Pullman's worlds beyond the Northern Lights.
