Dragons and Mice, Oh My!

Here's the latest on Christopher Paolini's upcoming title in the 'Inheritance' trilogy. The title of the book is 'Brisingr', an Old Norse word for fire. Originally scheduled to release on September 23rd, the publishers have pushed up the date to 12:01 a.m. on September 20th. Seems quite a few bookstores asked for the new date so they could do release parties. So keep your eyes open for Eragon parties as the date gets closer! And start re-reading the first two books!

Wanta go to the movies? How about on December 19th? Plan ahead because that's the current scheduled release date for the movie version of 'The Tale of Despereaux'. This well-loved Newbery winner by Kate DiCamillo should be a great movie, as long as Hollywood doesn't change the story so many know and love. This will most likely be 'the' holiday movie of the season!
