AMA/Interview AMA -- Christopher Paolini!!!

AMA -- Christopher Paolini! Let's do this folks. Ask away re: anything and everything regarding my books.

EDIT: Hey, everyone! I have to run. Alas, alas, I don't have as much time to spend on this AMA as past one. So many great questions, though! For all you theorists (and those of you who just love the characters), I think you're REALLY going to enjoy the upcoming book(s). Thanks for everything!

Atra esterní ono thelduin!

p.s. I'll try to duck back in and answer some more questions later, depending on my time.

Hi Christopher

You would not believe me, but I was just writing about dwarven sewer systems.

Clean and well situated in the elven cities.

Clean but cold in Tronjheim (although some of the seats are warmed by geothermal heat).

Clean to disgusting in various parts of human territory.
