Dear Readers:
I have heard that this book is a mix of Harry Potter, the Lord of the Rings, and more... Maybe that's true - maybe it isn't. Only Mr. Paolini knows the truth!
I enjoyed reading this book every time I read it (twice) because of Christopher Paolini's power to pull the Reader in, to pull them in so much, they don't want to set the book down. And why is this?
First of all, the characters are very well planned out, and that just allows the Reader to understand more from the plot. Eragon, Saphira, and Brom are characters we can connect with, and we understand them.
Secondly, the plot is PERFECT. I have never read a book that takes so many weird twists and turns. Thank goodness it's fiction, because Christopher has come up with SO much fiction items, it's even funner to read.
Third, and final, is the entire book together - from the beginning, to the end, the Reader is thrilled, and even on the last page, you are absolutely 100% aware that you want MORE!
I give this book a 5/5 rating, and a reccommendation for any Reader.

Eragon is the best book ever! It has soooo much adventure and suspense. It's about a boy named Eragon, and he finds a blue stone, but it's really a dragon's egg! When the egg/stone hatches, Saphira is born. Now, they try to fight the most evil guy in Alagaesia!!!!!

This is one of the best books I've gotten my hands on! This time, in truth, I never got bored! every page was exiting! I never got tired of the words printed out in front of my eyes! I was mesmorized for about 2 entire days, that is until my mum made me go outside and leave my book when I only had about 2 pages left. oh yes, I argued, but she wouldn't listen! well, ur not here to listen to me ranting on about my life so let me proceed: this book was awsome! I really did like it....well, thats all u get!

I very much enjoyed the way this story was woven out. It began in bright, exciting colors, and I have yet to stop goggling. I cannot wait until the next book comes, out. I am very eager to continue the masterpiece.

Incase you don't know my other name is Spartan 0
This is a great book I read it in 2004. It's part of a series. It's about a boy named Eragon I think who gets a "gem". Later he finds out it's a dragon's egg. When shes older Eragon tries to ride her but unfortunately for him her back shreds the skin off his legs. lol. He makes friends with this old rider who is a person who owns a dragon. I think his name was Brom. Anyway they find an unconcious creature and take her to her home. Eragon later must duel a spirit of some kind.
The funniest part is when Eragon uses magic on his arrow and shoots it at an enemy explodes it and snuffs it cause he is drained of magic. Brom finds him later I think.

This is a wonderful book. It starts out pretty slow but speeds up in the middle. It put my imagination to work trying to picture what the dragons and creatures looked like. I can't wait to read the next book.
