Over the last ten or so years I've read every book Christopher Paolini has written from Eragon to The Fork,the Witch, and the Worm and loved them all. To Sleep in a Sea of Stars is truly his best work. Between the characters, the storyline, and the wonderfully detailed descriptives I was as much in the book as I was reading it! I especially enjoyed the diversity of the different Wranaui forms. Gregorovich was incredibly entertaining. I cried when the Xeno killed Kira's friends, I laughed at the puns, and at times I just wanted to hug some of the chatacters. As if the story was not enough the art work in this book is amazing! I love how Christopher Paolini integrates his writing skills, artistic talents, and intelligence into all of his work!
