![]() Rating: - Paolini The Rip-offI first read this book after a bunch of hype in Middle school and rather liked it. The thing that bothered me about this book was that is was a bit "over-seasoned," and it seemed like Paolini was full of himself. Anybody who gives this book such high shining praise needs to take a second look. I do take note that a lot of reviewers who gave this book five stars have read many other fantasy books, and if they enjoyed it, its fine...

It is very well writen and has a good plot. The only part of the book where I felt bored was at the start of the book. I also enjoyed Eldest, and am awaiting the release of Brisngr. LOVE IT!!!! Rating: - I Love This SeriesI think "Eragon" is a very good book. I will be 10 soon, and this is one of my favorite books. Rating: - Bits of This and ThatLikable characters but I could not help remembering Star Wars and Lord of the Ring through the entire book. Between Jedi Mind tricks and Eragon's training to use magic I couldnt believe all the similarities between these three entities. Overall a good read |
