You know there's a problem with a book...

...when you spend the first 400 pages wishing the dragon would roll over in her sleep while on the road and crush the hero into smithereens.

If Murtagh doesn't show up soon in Eldest, I may scream.

Um - I hate to tell you this, really I do... but Murtagh doesn't show up for quite a while. You've got a nice wait ahead of you. :)
My sentiments were exactly the same as you when I read Eldest - Eragon (and Arya, for that matter) annoyed the hell out of me - Murtagh was the only character I ever really liked. I think it took me like, 3 weeks to read it because I kept giving up every ten pages out of sheer and utter boredom.
Good luck!

She'd be doing him a favor considering the way he acts around Arya...

This would be why I've never picked up Eragon.
