Post [Prank 2010] Fourth Book Cancelled
Random house has decided to go back on there original idea of turning the Inheritance trilogy into a series and as opted to return to the originally trilogy. Due to the economic times and the failure of the movie franchise they believe that a fourth book would not be of monetary value for the establish franchise.

This is a prank for SF's 2010 april fools day

I don't think so... well, sshe sent me the story, you all judge for yourself.

Eragon Falls Prey to the Bear Market
By STEVEN WILCOX
Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK CITY (AP) Stunning news in the literary world this week, as Random House announces that the last book in the popular Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini has been "posponed indefinitely". The fourth and final book in the epic fantasy series, the as yet "untitled" work was set to tie up the adventure entertainingly presented in the previous volumes; Eragon (2003), Eldest (2005), and Brisingr (2008). The Inheritance Cycle was one of the most popular young adult's series in the last decade, selling over twenty million copies worldwide. It spawned a live action movie, the eponymous Eragon (2006), several video games, and a multitude of merchandise from action figures to replicas of the magical swords used by the various characters.

Random House was contacted for comment, but declined to elaborate on the specifics, only saying that a major announcement would be coming later this week, elaborating on this decision.

Mr Paolini could not be reached for comment.



I think it's more likely that they're going to delay it for a bit.. there also could be financial trouble with the company itself.. we don't know anything yet.

They sign contracts with their publishing house, it's not that simple unfortunately. :/
But.. at least it will come out sometime.. :/ The economy's starting to look up. By the way, they updated the article since I saw it last.. they're going to hold a press conference on monday as an explanation.

Likewise, I'm totally baffled. I mean it totally isn't DECEMBER or anything.

You'd be wise not to say that so loudly. The homers may look cute and jolly, but they're deadlier than snake venom and can bite faster than fat kids eating Mighty Kid's meals at Macca's!!!

Why's that matter??? Are they going to THINK you to death? Don't think so! You're going to be seeing stars soon if you keep saying things out loud like that. They have ears built into their semiotic membranes.

They are eyesight? Who is eyesight? Obviously you have been confuddled by the homers' psychological brainpowers of being able to mesmerize young men who like felines.

Well Wrath of the Gods you should have put a link back to SF as the source, ti would have been so funny :)

This was obviously a prank for our 2010 prankaton, so do not take it seriously.
