Read
below for the latest from Christopher Paolini!
Welcome back! There hasn’t been too much news since
I returned from my last book tour. Most of the time
I’ve spent nailed to the chair in front of my computer,
pouring my imagination onto endless pages, so that
I, you, and everyone else can know what happens to
Eragon and Saphira.
I
finally got all the material for the Deluxe Edition
of Eragon wrapped up, with the help of my wonderful
editor, Michelle Frey, as well as copy editor, Artie
Bennett, who knows more about languages than just
about anyone else. I wish that I’d had him around
when I was going through my English courses in high
school!
I
have to admit, I’m looking forward to hearing your
reactions to the first chapter of Eldest, which is
excerpted in the special edition. It contains quite
a shocker. . . .
Oh,
and the Italian and Japanese versions of Eragon have
been released. I haven’t gotten a chance to see them
in person yet, but the pictures of them look pretty
neat. Especially the Japanese Eragon; the end-papers
with my map are blue. And the entire book is printed
from back to front and is read from left to right,
bottom to top!
That’s
all for now.
