The prose is killing me by inches, the dialogue howlingly juvenile, the drama and conflict agonisingly dull (because I do not give a good goddamn fart about these characters), and WHERE DRAGONS, HUH???
Well, at least I can 100% confirm the “Eragon for adults” lift pitch is accurate. Maybe a bit too so.

I have tickets to a launch event, and was immediately taken out by how 1:1 the structure is with Eragon, including the sole complaint about the empire being its high taxes, a strange hunt, and exposition-via-storyteller! I have also heard it is very WoT, but I have not read so cannot confirm.
