I just remembered. Didn't CP say this story takes place/possibly takes place in the future in the same universe as the IC? Is this to keep IC fans hooked? Or is CP trying to pull off a fantasy-scifi mixture like you see in a lot of 80s cartoons? So far Kira comes off as Eragon with boobs. Will we be treated to the same psychotic behavior as Eragon? Will there be a male equivalent to Arya? The way this story is written so far makes me wonder about CP's lifestyle and how honest he's been. Especially with all this talk of resources/labs. The guy lives in the middle of nowhere in Montana. I remember he would always boast about his knowledge of the outdoors/nature/food/building stuff. I also remember him posting about his own private workshop where he does metal/wood working. All the fans were gushing about what a rugged Montana mountain man he was. We can't forget how he loves to tell that story of his humble beginnings. Especially the part where he talks about how his family almost went homeless/hungry if they hadn't lucked out with the book deal. You would think stuff like this would show up in his writing and world building. Instead it comes off as completely sheltered and unaware. It's also obvious he has no experience with work or interacting with people. So...how much was exaggerated or just made up? He really should have made this book YA. It really reads like one. Kira comes off as the typical YA Sue. If this is the best CP can do for both female characters and romance, it's EXTREMELY OBVIOUS he has no experience with either. In Eragon, it was easy to understand. He was young and sheltered. He had no experience like alot of young people. But now...the man is approaching 40....>~>;;;
I wonder if Eragon will meet up with Kira
