How did the razac destroy the farm? I just started re listening to the audio book and noticed that the farm was blown apart. As far as we know the razac can't use magic. I doubt they would have struggled at all to walk into the house and kill garrow, and just burning the house down wouldn't have exploded it.
I remembered that in one of the books in the series, Paolini uses Garrow to say something about drinking and how someone who is an alcoholic should drink by himself and was wondering if anyone has the quote. I've tried looking for it but to no avail.
I know he was the one to raise Eragon and Roran and Eragon’s initial motive to enact revenge on the Raz‘ac but I feel like something will happen. Selena was the most feared woman in the realm, Murtagh is a kingslayer, Roran a hero whose name and valor will be praised for thousands of years, Eragon also a hero, hope of the world and a king, if not, a godslayer. And their fathers are famous. Brom, founder of the Varden and bane of the Forsworn, the strongest order in existence and Morzan, strongest member of the Forsworn and the man who paved the way for one of the greatest empires ever. And then there is Garrow, a simple farmer, never
Just a quick PSA.
Garth going south towards Stone Church is closed off only on the southbound side. Large water main break. Lots of water is heading down the Garth ramp from the Eastbound Linc, very icy. Police have the road blocked from turning south onto Garth from the Eastbound Linc exit, as well as to cars already on Garth. They aren't doing a great job of making soutbound drivers aware but you can do a u-turn at the linc stoplights to go north on Garth to go around it. Northbound traffic was fine as of this posting. Be safe, friends.
This question popped into my head, did Uncle Garrow have the inside scoop on Brom? Was he aware of what was going on with Eragon in the beginning but didn’t say anything? I feel like he could’ve known some of these things and histories. Thoughts?
The historian David Garrow made his reputation with his 1986 biography of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Bearing the Cross, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1987. As the title suggests, Garrow provided a mostly admiring depiction of the civil rights leader as a heroic figure and political martyr.
It is all the more shameful that Garrow has lent his reputation and standing to a political smear campaign, writing a diatribe against Dr. King published Thursday in the right-wing British magazine Standpoint.
