I'm currently re-reading the books before reading "the fork the witch and the worm". I've stumbled upon Liduen Kvaedhi which is a special script invented by the elves for writing in TAL. Oromis tells Eragon that Liduen Kvaedhi is based upon 42 basic letters, and these letters can be rearranged into an infinte amount of glyphs. Oromis mentioned that one of the "basic glyphs" was on Aren, so one of the glyphs should look like this.

Christopher's journey to becoming a globally beloved publishing phenomenon is as magical as the fantasy novels he writes. Christopher was homeschooled by his parents and often wrote short stories and poems, made frequent trips to the library, and read widely. He was fifteen when he wrote the first draft of Eragon and his family self-published the book in 2001. In August 2003, Alfred A. Knopf Books for Young Readers published Eragon and it was an instant success, reaching a worldwide audience. Christopher's second novel Eldest was published in 2005, followed by Brisingr in 2008. Inheritance, the fourth and final book in the cycle released in November 2011. Additional titles in The World of Eragon include Eragon's Guide to Alagaesia and The Fork, The Witch, and the Worm.Paolini is a master of his craft, creating such a beautiful world and intricate characters. I know a lot of people find Eragon annoying and immature....he's 15 and 16 in this book, it's expected for him to be so! It makes him realistic in circumstances that are so fantastical, which I really appreciate in a good character. But we also see him grow a lot in his maturity, not just in the series but just in this first book. I love how Paolini develops his characters, including Eragon. That is powerful. That has nothing to do with Tolkien or Lewis or anyone. That has to do with individual writing voice, and an extremely good one, at that.
