This book was great, im not even finished yet and its amazing. okay, sure, its like star wars and lotr, and trust me i love those books and movies. but this book is not a direct copy!!!

and this is not the first book to be similar to others. take the shakesperean classics. people produce books similar to older books, its just natural fact. nothing is completely original so just live with it.

this is a great book though, and it really gets you into the story, and i was jumping up and down when i found out they were making a movie. anybody who likes a book that takes you away to a different place full of magic and fantasy will like this book too.
