Roni asked Christopher Paolini:

Hi Christopher!! I LOVE YOUR BOOKS THEY ARE FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!! Just wanted to ask, in book 5, you said you will feature familiar characters... does that include what happened to Alagasia after Eragon left, and was he successful with raising the new dragons and training dragon riders... and Murtagh???? He was my favorite! I hope he comes back to help Eragon with the dragons... hope you can answer! Can't wait! :}

Christopher Paolini Thank you, glad you've enjoyed the series! Without giving too much away, I think you'll be happy to know many of the loose ends left at the conclusion of Inheritance–some of which you mentioned—will be addressed in Book Five. :)

Lauren asked Christopher Paolini:

Hi Christopher, My 7 year old had been loving your books, he's on page 610-ish of Brisingr, and is suddenly distraught. He can't believe that everyone has been lying to poor Eragon for his whole life. I've been assuring him that you'll explain it.... I hope you do! If not... could you throw him a response here about why everyone, even his very own dragon, could be so callous? Thank you!

Lúcia asked Christopher Paolini:

I've always been curious about this, and I have no idea if you have ever answered it before. What were the seven words that Brom told Eragon before he died?

Usually if a studio has the film rights they have only so much time to make a movie or they lose the rights... Do you have such a deal with Fox?
