Random House has announced that book 3 of Christopher Paolini's Inheritance cycle will be called Brisingr! It will be released on September 20, 2008. The cover features a picture of the gold dragon Glaedr.
From the press release:
“BRISINGR is one of the first words I thought of for this title, and it’s always felt right to me,” said Christopher Paolini. “As the first ancient-language word that Eragon learns, it has held particular significance for his legacy as a Dragon Rider. In this new book, it will be revealed to be even more meaningful than even Eragon could have known.”

Brisingr is the sequel to the popular books Eragon and Eldest. Fans have speculated that the title of the third book would begin with an 'E' also, like the first two books. Empire was a popular guess for the book 3 title. I think the actual title will catch a lot of people by surprise.
The Random House AuthorTracker email provides more clues to the title and cover: "Both elements of the cover, the gold dragon Glaedr and the title, touch on Eragon’s inheritance. With his painting, John Jude Palencar has captured the dignity and wisdom of Glaedr, and Random House has again designed an awesome book cover."

I’m going to be honest. I have been waiting for When A Gene Makes You Smell Like a Fish…and Other Tales about the Genes in Your Body to come out in paperback. It is one of those book where you are so immersed in the stories you only realize later, after you put it down, how much you have learned. Author Lisa Seachrist Chiu tells stories about rare and not so rare genetic quirks while explaining modern genetics. Below we have excerpted the beginning of chapter two, Just One Bad Apple, this afternoon we will look at the Long Stretch Gene.
Your third-grade teacher was right. Sometimes it takes only one bad apple to spoil the barrel. (more…)
