(4) YA Inheritance Trilogy series. Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, continue their quest to defeat tyrant magician Galbatorix. Paolini's enthusiasm and transparent love of his own story keep the proceedings (700-plus pages packed with extraneous scenes and dialogue) from bogging down completely. Readers who share his delight will enjoy the full-sense immersion in his world, though even they might cavil at the lightweight climax.
