First off I'd like to say that anyone who gives this book a one is crazy!!! This is a great book with a great story line! I't is one of my favorite books, and I just finished it today. I can't wait until the second book comes out! By the way does anyone know when the second book is comming out???

If you enjoyed Eragon, i know i did, you will love the author Terry Goodkind, and the Sword of Truth series. The Fantasy series also has a magical sword,(the sword of truth as u could tell from the name) sort of like zar'roc. The books are very long, but the author Terry Goodkind covers every aspect of his story. Right now there is about 7 books out, so they will take a chunk of time to read.

ERAGON is the best book i've ever read. I realy like mid-evil and dragons and ERAGON is both. It is also an awesome story line and lots of cool names.

I liked ERAGON it is the best book I've read. Even better than Harry Potter. It is the book I've been looking for. I love dragons,and the way he gave them such an exelant role in ERAGON. I've been looking for a book with dragons in it,and one that doesn't only have like 200 pages.

i loved this book and it is my #1 favorite. the charaters and plot are real which makes the book flow smoothly. for those who say that murtagh is eragon's brother i disagree, i have another in mind that i will not share at this time(i real do have another). i also believe that brom is eragons father. i believe this because eragon is 15 and brom has been in the Carvahall for approx. 15 yaers, or so brom says. also broms eyes seemed to linger on eragon whenever brom was telling a story.

but it is this constant arguing and guessing that that puts Eragon and Paolini among some of the best ever.

I find that christopher paolini has put in a lot of effort into this book, he is a young author and it is impressive for someone his age to publish a book. It may be his parents publishing company, but then another company has started making copies of this aswell. Being an author myself, (I am currently halfway through my first novel) i feel that he has been a real inspiration to me, although it is not as good as lord of the rings or the dragonlance chronicles, he probably would of written the best book in the world if he had been in the same age group as the other authors. The way he describes the descriptions of places and the features of all the characters is just awesome, and the way he explains all the action is breathtaking. I would recommend this book to anyone from the age of ten to 100, it's a great value for money and i would pay double the price just to read a page of this awesome book.
