Eragon

I just fininshed reading Eragon. Has anyone else read this book?

Is it me, or do you think it is just a reworded Lord of the Rings?

It is a good read, and imagine a 15/16 year old wrote it. But I still felt like I was reading Lord of the Rings again. Let me know what you think?

Eragon

I don't think I have heard of this book. Would you let me know who the author is and I will see if I can pick up a copy at the library and check it out.

Christopher Paolini is the author. When he graduated from high school at 15 he began writing his debut novel, ERAGON. Now 19, he lives with his family in Paradise Valley, Montana, where he is at work on ELDEST, the next volume in the Inheritance trilogy.

Eragon

Thanks bunches AGene. I will head to the library tomorrow and check and see if I can find it. Also thanks for the added info about the author. So Eragon would be the first book in the series, then huh? But I will check it out and see if it does sound like a rip off of the LOTR.

Eragon

I've never read it but it sounds pretty good from what I've read on Amazon. I am obsessed with anything having to do with medieval history, or fantasy (which is why I joined this site in the first place) so I would probably like it.

Eragon

I never read lord of the rings. I tried to several times but never got sucked in so i moved on. I loved the movies though. I have read Eragon and LOVED it. it is infact one of my faveroite books! It might be like the LOTR books, but I would not know. just thought I'd give a bit of useless info that no one can ever do anything with... my job is done...

Eragon

Yes, Yes. I do agree. Very much like lord of the rings. ALso a lot there from the DragonRiders of Pern series. He even repeated some phrases like "fly, you fools..." and I spotted another one, I just forgot. Also, I felt like the book lacks some sense of purpose. Many times I just stopped and thought "wait, why is he doing all of this?" Only in the middle does he actually start having a purpose.

Um, on a different note, when is the second one going to be published?

Yes I own Eragon!!!! I love that book, I don't really think that it was too much like lord of the Rings it had it's own idividuality that I really liked about it. I can't wait for the second book to come out
